By default Jomres is designed to be a multi-vendor booking platform. Managers who have their own beds24 accounts can import their properties to and from beds24 securely.
There are two-ways you can make the connection,
1. Single Connection
  - Jomres is connected to one master account in Beds24, every manager in Jomres that has access to a connected property can send updated to Beds24. The API key in jomres needs to be set on the administration area in Jomres under Settings > Site configuration > Integration
2. Multiple connections
  - Each manager will have to connect using the api key, in this connection please leave the "above" setting "Blank"
</div>
*The connection is initiated from Jomres. Please follow the instructions for the Jomres plugin.
