  1. We would like to propose more specialised Webhooks.

    Not every change to the reservation, for example, is needed for every use case. Instead, only changes to specific fields are interesting for (for example the status).

  2. Extend the Customers/getAll API so that customers can be searched by their phone number. This enables telephony integration. When a customer calls in it will be possible to display their name on the phone display and/or in the PBX web interface.

  3. There is no means for integrators to inform guests how or when their payment will be settled in MEWS.

    It would be helpful if MEWS could expose this in the rateGroups/getAll endpoint.

  4. Problem description:

    When we are getting a 403 Forbidden response, we only have the error message to go on about what the actual issue is. This can be an invalid rate plan or Mews being busy for a minute.

    As documented (https://mews-systems.gitbook.io/connector-api/guidelines/responses#response-codes), these error messages are translated in the client language, so these can be displayed to the end user.

    For example the 403 Forbidden response on /rates/updatePrice can be this:

    {
    "Message": "Une autre opération est en cours. Veuillez réessayer dans quelques secondes.",
    "DebugDetails": null,
    "Details": null
    }

    This message contains no machine readable information about the…

  5. Both services/getAvailability and rates/getPricing support one single ServiceId parameter.
    Extending them to support multiple ServiceIds would lower number of API calls and help to minimize 429 error. Too many requests, when the limits are "used"

  7. Currently we are unable to adjust the Inquired status to Optional status via the Connector API. So the connection with Thynk is not working, Optional groups in Thynk are not pushed through to Mews under Inquired status.....this causes imbalance between the systems

  8. The reservation event messages in the websocket channel are actually not representing events, but state changes. To be able to separate a checkin (state change from Confirmed to Started) from undoing a checkout (state change Processed to Started) I would like to have included the previous state in the event messages, since both of the examples will send only an event with status Started.

    Hello all,


    This status update is part of our ongoing work to simplify and streamline how our UserVoice feedback forum operates. We are reducing the number of statuses to two (Idea to Upvote + Released) to help manage expectations about where each idea stands and to minimize the number of status updates required from our product teams. Our product team reviews everything you share, and we might reach out for more info if we need it. 


    Thanks for your patience as we work to bring your ideas to life! You can learn more about the changes coming to UserVoice from this post in the Mews Community.

  9. Currently accounting items can only be queried by date closed or date consumed. As revenue management systems want to be able to see charges before they are closed, and as consumption dates can essentially be set any time in the past or future, this makes regular scraping of this API call impractical. The call should also allow for setting the time filter as the date the item was created or updated, like with the reservations, so that regular frequent scraping can be performed properly.

  10. With this endpoint, integrators would be able to retrieve customer files from Mews such as the registration card which was digitally signed on the Mews Operator.

  13. If an object (for our case, it is Customers object) is global across all the properties then there should be an option to enable or disable for selected properties to receive those webhook events. Currently there is no option for it to enable/disable from user settings.

    Integrators do not need to receive same data event(s) across all the properties if single property data event is enough for their business cases.

    Also it will be good for less cpu cycles or usage of the server resources. Although it doesn't matter sometimes, depending on the context.

    Thanks.

  14. Hi,

    in our property you can enter the Park before you checkin in you room, you get allredy your electronic roomkeys but your room is not ready in the morning. For this case we need a additional state for the Reservation like "Pre-Checkin" wich we can set before every thing is ready, to see that you entered the park but you are not in your room yet.

  15. It would be great to have a API call that allows, changing of status of a tasks or at least to close a task.
    when using tasks for automations having a status that could be change in the API would make the process much more reliable.

  16. Parallel as to the "old" OTA_HotelInvBlockNotifRQ XML messages an availability/grouo block should have information:

    • count: how many rooms are blocked for that group block for each day and each roomtype
    • picked: how many rooms are already reserved for that group block for each day and each roomtype
    • [and maybe also] daily rate: what is the rate for each roomtype per day (per number of persons)

  17. Most other PMS's (all using HTNG standard and most custom APIs) can provide a simple Date : Room Type : Out of Order count.

    So like:

    2021-06-30: King: 1 OOO
    2021-06-30: Queen: 0 OOO

    Mews requires storage of resourceBlocks, mapping of room numbers to resource categories, and storage of unique IDs for every OOO room. This is much more complex than other partners, and would require a whole new inventory architecture to support.

    Now that you've added an Adjustments extent: would be great to be able to pull total Out of Order counts by date and by roomtype via getAvailability…

  18. In Belgium we have OGM numbering, partners could handle this via the api if there would be an UpdateBill request available in which only the notes can be updated of an open bill.

  20. It would be very useful if we were able to export to Excel the customer profiles (filtered by company name). The goal is to have a clean data base for emailing segmentation.

    We can add the company in the profile but there is no use behind this.
