**Your hosts make the connection between their Airbnb accounts and Beds24 themselves'''
==Can I connect listings that I am a Co-Host?==
No. Airbnb does not allow Co-hosts to use their connect listings or disconnect listings. Only owners can make APIconnections. Only owners can make API connections. This means if you are a Co-Host Airbnb will not allow you to connect your co-hosted listings via Beds24 (or any other channel manager). Solutions to this limitation are:
*Ask the host to transfer their account to you.
*Your hosts make the connection between their Airbnb accounts and Beds24 themselves'''
**You can create a (temporary) subaccount in Beds24 for each of your hostsowners. Your hosts will have a login where they then can connect their Airbnb accounts. **If you manage a large number of properties we can give you the "Connect with Airbnb Account" button. Your hosts owners will then be able to use this button outside of Beds24 so they will not need to log into
