Create a reservation quote to hold booking offer for certain period of time. A "default"/"standard" rate plan is supplied for properties that aren't assigned to an active Revenue Management Rate Plan. Ensure you only use the rate plans supplied with the quote to create your reservation.

Important

Before using the Booking Engine (BE) API reservation endpoints, ensure your Guesty account is properly activated by following these steps:

1. Activate Manual Source (skip this step if you already have direct reservations in Guesty account):
   • Create a manual reservation directly in the Guesty UI. This step is required to activate the "Manual" booking source in your account.
2. Activate BE API Source:
   • Create your first reservation using the Booking Engine API endpoints.
   • This step is essential to initialize the BE API source, which allows you to set up additional fees, taxes, auto payments and automated messages.
