services/getAvailability: add an OOO count.
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 OOOMews 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…
4 votesOur API is built on the philosophy of providing raw data only. The API doesn't perform mutations or calculations on that data. The calculations as requested can be done on the side of the API user themselves based on the data we provide.

Include merchant fee adjustment in the CreditCardTransaction object
Integration partners can retrieve the estimated transaction fee via accountingItems/getAll, with CreditCardTransaction extent.
The "Fee" parameter gives the estimated transaction fee value. (https://mews-systems.gitbook.io/connector-api/operations/finance#credit-card-transaction)
However, with the recent feature release of transaction fee adjustments for select properties, the updated fees are not returned, and can cause discrepancy between data in Mews PMS and in other systems (e.g. accounting, business intelligence, etc).
In the exported Payment Report, "Fee total net"/"Fee total" refers to the estimated transaction fee and will be displayed "Fee" parameter in the CreditCardTransaction object. On the other hand, "Adjusted total fee" in the same report refers to…

Resource block creation/updates as one of the Resource Events in Webhook/WebSocket
Currently, an integration partner that uses inventory data (such as Revenue Management systems, Event Management, etc) needs to poll resourceBlocks/getAll and are not able to sync space avilability in real time.
There is already a WebSocket notification when a room/space/resource is make as Out of Service (OOS). Would be great to expand that to cover Out of Order (OOO) and House Use blocks to reduce the need for calling the API regularly to check for created/updated resource blocks.

Revenue: Get all reservation changes
When getting historic reservation data, such as reservations/getAll it would be great if we could get all states of reservation.
For instance, reservation was created on 10th of July for 10th of August for 30 rooms. It was changed from 30 to 50 rooms on 15 of July. Currently we can only access last state, however getting older state (state of 30 rooms in this example), would be great. This would allow us to recreate historic booking correctly. We can use this booking for creating different machine learning algorithms.

WebSockets: Add PreviousState to reservation events
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.

Specify CancellationReason in reservations/cancel
Users in Mews can choose from a pre-defined list of reasons when manually cancelling reservations in the reservations module in Mews PMS.
However, when a reservation is cancelled via API, the cancellation reason defaults to "Other".
It would be great to be able to also specify cancellation reason via the API (drawing from the pre-defined list available in Mews) so that integration partners can help keep the reservations reporting as accurate as possible.

Being able to update the notes on an open bill in order to put an OGM number in there before the bill gets closed and printed
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.

Initiate key cutter from API
There is a possibility to click "Create keys" in the Mews Admin to create keys by the Salto key cutter system. However we want to automize this through the API, so that keys can be automatically generated for guests, e.g. an hour before check-in.

Make reservation(s) optional
There's currently no way to change a reservation's status to "Optional" using the API. There are individual endpoints for confirming and canceling a reservation, but no endpoint for making one optional. A specific endpoint, or an extension to the
[PlatformAddress]/api/connector/v1/reservations/updatethat allows for modifying the reservation state would be great!Why? We allow our users to create "Enquired" reservations but they now have no way to make those reservations "Optional" (from our system)
Thanks!

Filter by Space Name when calling rooms from connector API
For the connector API it is necessary to retrieve all rooms each time an API Call is made to pull the space feature, this is quite a heavy call for TSH as some hotels have 700 rooms.
Could Mews consider to introduce a filter by room name ideally?
This way Ireckonu or another integrating partner does not need to pull all rooms each time.

Get booking source data via connector reservations
Hold reservation source data when creating reservations via connector. At the moment source is simply listed as connector. But we need to show whether that researvaton source was email, phone, onsite etc. Currently we are using Salesforce API via connector to create reservations but losing this data.

Create/Edit Vouchers and Voucher Codes via API
Adding functionatlity to create/edit vouchers and their codes would be useful for a number of use cases.
Firstly in my opinion the Mews process for creating this is a little clunky, especially if you want to track the usage of each VC as it needs to be it's own Voucher, there's no way to track the codes within that voucher.
Therefore lets say you have a staff friends & family rate, and you want the voucher code to be the employee name so you can track usage and abuse of the incentive.
Creating additional codes for an already created voucher…

String maximum lengths to be documented
Could the Connector API documentation please give the maximum possible lengths of all string values? It's hard to store responses from the API in a database without knowing how big to make the fields!
1 voteHello from the Mews product team.
Unfortunately, we are unable to document such limitations as we also rely in certain cases on other 3rd party integrations sending us information. Documenting this would naturally create breaking changes as soon as we need to extend the field sizes.
Thank you for reaching out.
