This page is about the menu SETTINGS->ACCOUNT->ACCOUNT ACCESS

Here you can change/set up:

With our API you can access your account from an external source.

There are three different types of API functions - CSV, XML and JSON. They require different methods of authorization:

Your Beds24 account user name and password

Your Beds24 account user name and password

You need two special keys - one for the API itself and one for the property. The keys have to consist of 16 characters of your choosing.

Settings > Account > Account Access > API Key 1:

API Key = my_very_secret_api_key

API Key Access = allow any IP

IP Whitelist = [leave empty]

Allow Writes = Yes

Property Access = Owned by this account only

Settings > Properties > Access > propKey = secret_key_for_prop_XXXXXX
