Airbnb

Connect Airbnb via OAuth from Hostel Mate, authorize the account, then map listings to rooms and verify a small price change to confirm syncing.

Prerequisites

• Airbnb login for the correct account

• Owner present to approve OAuth if needed

1) Log In and Authorize

1. Confirm you’re logged into the correct Airbnb account

2. Start the connection from Hostel Mate (Channel Manager)

3. Approve access in Airbnb when prompted (OAuth)

2) Map and Verify

1. After authorization, open the mapping page

2. Match Airbnb listings to your rooms and rates

3. Push a small price change and confirm it on Airbnb

Tips

• Password changes after connecting will not break the integration

• Make sure duplicate iCal feeds are removed to prevent conflicts

Troubleshooting

• No listings after OAuth: refresh the page, then re-open mapping

• Authorization loop: log out of Airbnb, log back in, and retry
