In order to create an integration between Hostaway and Vikey, you need to carefully follow these steps as it is shown below:
CREATE THE API KEY IN HOSTAWAY
You can activate the API KEY directly in the Hostaway dashboard > Settings > Hostaway API.
- Click on Create > Give it a name:
- You will receive an API KEY
Important: This will be shown ONLY ONCE.
ENTER YOUR HOSTAWAY CREDENTIALS IN VIKEY
In order to set-up the integration between Vikey and Hostaway, you need to go on your Vikey dashboard in Settings > Integrations > Add integration:
Simply select the Hostaway logo and enter the credentials you’ve previously created, in the required fields:
select your account from the drop-down menu
enter your Hostaway Account ID
enter the API KEY you’ve generated in Hostaway
click on Activate
HOW TO CREATE WEBHOOKS
Moreover, Hostaway allows you to create and manage “webhooks” to make integration with Vikey more efficient.
To create webhooks, you need to enter a URL by going to the Settings > Integrations area of your Hostaway dashboard. The section you are interested in is the one regarding UNIFIED WEBHOOKS:
You will need to include the URL https://integrations.vikey.it/hostaway/{integr_id} in the specified section, paying attention to add as {integr_id}, the Hostaway integration ID that you previously created in Vikey (in the Settings > Integrations area).
Click on Add to complete the procedure.
