Identify booking source (seller) on your Channel Manager API bookings

Using the Custom Input Field feature allows you to define a unique seller ID for each seller on the Bókun platform.

To be able to identify from which Seller on the Bókun platform your Channel Manager API bookings originate, you need to complete two main steps.

  1. Create the custom input field for the SellerID.
  2. Assign the seller ID to contracts on the Bókun Marketplace.
