Overview
This document describes Universal Hotel API, which can be integrated into various applications (Web app, Mobile app etc).
It is intended specially for developers and other team members to help them know how the Hotel API Service works. This guide provides all the required information to integrate this Universal Hotel API.
All the steps right from search, to getting the room prices and policies along with the hotel details, to price verification before booking & then final booking are sequentially followed by using a shared transaction identifier (TraceId).
We strongly recommended that you read the complete guide before integration. This is RESTful service which communicates only in JSON Format. You may use online tools like http://jsonlint.com
or http://jsonviewer.stack.hu/
(or other some similar tools) to validate the JSON Format.
This guide explains the use of each method, what support we are providing to use the API efficiently, how to access the resources provided by Tek Travels, etc. This document also contains the certification process you need to go through for Go Live access. The document assumes that you are familiar with web services technology.
Now it is mandatory to implement the de-dupe functionality at your end for the certification process.
If you are already certified for the hotel api and want to perform the certification again (due to any reason) then first you have to take approval for the same.
