ical Import export pluging - AR034 - 08-23-2013

I am thinking of buying the wubook solution for integrating my pms system.
Bookt.com to booking.com

i have realized that the ical plugin is only reading.

It would be great if you could have the ical plugin writing as well.

It will help many clients integrate with various holiday rentals sites like airbnb, housterip etc.

Hello,

thank you so much for your message.
So, if you want to import reservations from wubook to your system, you already have 2 solutions:

1) Wired: it's a solution based on XML information. It's possible to retrieve full information about each reservation, cancellation and modification. Docs can be find here: https://sites.google.com/site/wubookdocs/wired

2) Post notifications: we're able to communicate reservations with a POST. You can specify a custom URL for each of your property. Altough we don't send complete information as we do with Wired, POST Notifications are already a better solution than iCal. It's difficult (and maybe out of scope) to insert on an iCal file too many details about reservations (customers and reservation information).

I strongly think that iCal is a little bit poor to develop a relaible and complete interface with WuBook. At least if you want to integrate (import) reservatoins on your system.

Why don't you take into consideration these options?
Feel free to ask for each doubt.

Agani, thank you so much for you message and let me know if I can help you further!
