The turnaround time for the test case verification is around 4-5 working days.
Step 3: Hotel API Validations
After successful verification of the test cases, client need to confirm if all the validations are implemented at their end. Below is the link to download the hotel api validations-
Step 4: Sign off and Live access
On successful completion of all the above steps, TBO will give sign off and provide Live access details to the client.
It is strongly recommended that the client also completes their UAT before making the services live at their end.
Step 5: IP Whitelisting
Post successful signoff, the client needs to check the Static Public IP/ Gateway ** (Network Routing IP) with their domain service provider and share the same.
This would be the IP Address from where client's API requests would come to TBO server.
To check your routing IP or public IP/ Gateway, just go to http://cmyip.com/ or http://www.whatismyip.com/
Also note that agency's staging account will remain active till 1 month of releasing live credentials after that you will not be able to access the testing account. In future, if you need to access the same then you have to take the approval.
