5 Allow API Access

With our API you can access your account from an external source.

There are three different types of API functions - CSV, XML and JSON. They require different methods of authorization:

  • CSV: Your Beds24 account user name and password
  • XML: Your Beds24 account user name and password
  • JSON: You need two special keys - one for the API itself and one for the property. The keys have to consist of 16 characters of your choosing.

    Property Access = Owned by this account only
