Six steps, most of them in Hospitable. The connection reads from Hospitable; the booking goes back to it.

Starting from your Cavmir project

The six steps

  1. Start your Cavmir projectSign the quote and the onboarding form opens. It asks for everything once: domain, photos, brand facts and the Hospitable connection.
  2. Create the token in HospitableThe account owner opens Hospitable, then Apps › API access, chooses “Add new”, names it Cavmir and allows the read scopes for properties, listings, calendar and reservations. Leave the IP allowlist empty. Hospitable shows the token once.
  3. Give it to Cavmir privatelyPaste the token into the onboarding form, never into chat or email. It is stored by name in Cavmir’s vault and can be revoked by you in Hospitable at any time.
  4. Set the Direct photosIn each property’s details, scope the photos you want on the site to the Direct channel and put them in order. Only those photos reach the site, in that order.
  5. Switch on Direct for the checkoutLive quotes and the checkout need an active Direct plan in Hospitable. Promo codes are created under Direct › Promo codes and work on the site.
  6. Check the first syncCavmir connects, reads every home and sends you the preview link. Check the names, the photos and a sample quote against Hospitable. From then on the site follows Hospitable every ten minutes.

Once Cavmir is on Hospitable’s Apps page

Cavmir’s listing on Hospitable’s Apps page is in review. Once Hospitable approves it, the connection starts from there: open Apps in Hospitable, choose Cavmir, press Get started, and authorise the connection; no token to copy. Until then, the steps above are the route.
