Daily prices can be read with JSON getRoomDates and their setup with JSON getDailyPriceSetup | |||
Rates can be read with JSON getRates | |||
These should be read approximately once per hour and stored on your server. Your server can use the data to respond to searches quickly without requiring API calls. | |||
Only once a selection of room type, dates and occupancy has been made, make a live call to JSON getAvailabilities to check the data is still current. | |||
