Smoobu 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 Smoobu 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 Smoobu 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.
Description (Manual)
Your Boostly website will require you to manually manage all of your description content for your listings on your website.
Featured Image (Manual)
The featured image on both the map location screen and highlighted properties will need to be managed manually on your Boostly website.
Gallery Images (Manual)
All of your listing image galleries (on single listing pages) will need to be managed manually on your Boostly website.
Property Type (API)
The property type of your listings will sync directly from your Smoobu account. You will not be required to manually update or change this info in your Boostly website.

Availability (API)
Your listing availability will sync directly with your Boostly website from your Smoobu account per listing. It will also account for any min/max stays you have implemented.
Location (API)
The location of each property will sync directly with your Smoobu account. This endpoint is based on the google map location you have submitted in your Smoobu account at listing level. As the locations are based on a google map address, ensure that the address is correct.

A selection of the most referenced amenities will sync directly from your Smoobu account.

Possible bookers will be able to complete an on-site booking using the Smoobu PMS checkout. Your Boostly website will link over to the PMS checkout once the possible booker clicks on the Book Now button at the listing level.
Currency (API)
All currency information is synced directly with your Smoobu account. The set currency will then be replicated on your Boostly website. We can also add a multi-currency widget feature on your Boostly website. Note this will only work as intended if using one main currency type from your Smoobu account.
Registration Process (API)
Upon checkout, any possible booker submitting their email for payment confirmation will automatically be registered on your Boostly website. If you decide to have a login area for bookers their stay information will be held on-site for them to reference later.
Coupon (API)
Any coupon codes you will have implemented in your Smoobu account can be used at the check-out page.

Changeover (API)
The check-in and check-out changeover will automatically be synced from your Smoobu account using our API, based on your listing's calendar.
