Using the iCalendar format, you can set up two-way synchronization of Trevlix occupancy with the airbnb catalog.

We will show you how to do it in 2 steps.

If you do not have the iCalendar module active, please send us a request using the Query button in Trevlix.

If you do not know how to deal with something, we will help you at info@trevlix.cz :)

Step 1 - Export occupancy from Trevlix to airbnb

In Trevlix, click Settings - Set Export in iCalendar format

 

Export icalendar

 

The iCalendar format interconnects individual rooms (or other accommodation units).

It is necessary to gradually connect all the corresponding rooms, always with each other.

For example, "Room No. 3" in Trevlix with "Room No. 3" in the airbnb catalog.

Click the "copy to clipboard" button next to the selected room.

 

Now paste the copied address into the airbnb catalog

 

Calendar import:

  1. On airbnb.com on Hostess and select Calendar
  2. Click Availability Settings in its window
  3. Under Calendar Sync, select Import Calendar
  4. Paste your calendar's URL in the Calendar Addresses (URL) field
  5. Name your calendar
  6. Click Import Calendar

Import iCal Airbnb

 

Note: You can find the whole procedure on the airbnb support website

 

Repeat the procedure for all rooms (or accommodation units, eg apartments).

 

How often will airbnb import occupancy from the iCalendar format?

Do not expect the import within 1 minute, as is the case with Channel Manager, the import may take several minutes to several hours.

Step 2 - import occupancy from airbnb to Trevlix

Now go to the calendar export in the airbnb administration

 

  1. On airbnb.cz go to Hostess and select Calendar
  2. Click Availability Settings in its window
  3. Under Calendar Sync, choose Export Calendar
  4. Copy the Airbnb calendar link

Airbnb export iCalendar

Note: You can find the whole procedure on the airbnb support website

 

Copy the link to the clipboard and paste it into Trevlix:

Settings - Set Import in iCalendar format - Add new iCalendar import

 

import iCalendar

 

Trevlix checks the file format and saves the iCalendar feed for regular import.

 

Import Trevlix - seznam

In the feed overview you will always find the last time the feed was processed and its status.

 

Please repeat the procedure for all rooms (accommodation units).

Done - availability is connected :)

Now your orders from the airbnb catalog will be regularly imported into Trevlix :)

And all reservations from Trevlix will set the current availability in the airbnb catalog.

You can recognize them, for example, by the reservation source on the reservation card.

Tip in conclusion: If you set up an import from all used sources to Trevlix, it will contain all reservations. Then all you have to do is export the occupancy only from Trevlix to all catalogs and it will keep all catalogs up to date.
