Rentals United API Checklist

This document will outline the items available with our API sync on a Boostly website.

API is the 2-way interface between your website that allows for accurate information to pass directly between your website and Rentals United account. You will not be required to manage these items from your website. Any item that is a direct API sync should be managed from your Rentals United account for representation on your Boostly website.

Below you’ll find the general key items that would be represented on site by API endpoints. If any item is noted as Manual, these will be manually managed content on your Boostly website using WordPress.
