== Troubleshooting==

If you are using Ical Export and Ical import and it is not setup carefully the same booking can be exported and re-imported repeatedly in a loop. Please see the [ICal_Export| Ical export instructions] for information about breaking the loop. You would enter the URL something like the following into the external system: https://beds24.com/api/ical/bookings.ics?roomid=20318&token=ee09f8d452d680b8da5e584ffad7845f&icalimport1=hide

There is a tool in Ical import to delete all the imported bookings so you can start fresh.

~~We provide an Ical export to export inventory~~ and ~~an Ical import which imports bookings~~.

If there there was a booking which has been cancelled and the channel sends a new one for exact the same dates the original booking gets overridden. If required copy the booking and amend one of them manually.
