Availability Exchange
Share availability with connected channels according to the connector's supported update method, mapping, timing, and external API behavior.
Rate Exchange
Send or receive supported rate information based on the channel connection and configured rate mapping.
Reservation Intake
Bring supported external reservations into Booking Ninjas so staff can manage them with the rest of the reservation operation.
Shared Salesforce Context
Keep connected reservations closer to customer records, billing, reporting, and operational workflows inside Salesforce.
