How to integrate Hospitable with Houfy

Sign in to Houfy and open Software Partners (it is in the left sidebar, alongside Manage Listings).

Click Connect with Hospitable.

Choose how you want to connect, under Do you want to import new listings or map existing listings on Houfy?:

• Import new listings - Houfy creates new listings by pulling the data from Hospitable.

• Map existing listings - you match each Hospitable property to a listing you already have on Houfy.

If you are mapping, tick what you want kept in sync:

• Listing rates

• Listing availability

• All listing data

• Listing name

• Listing description

• Listing photos

• Listing amenities/suitability/activities

You will be taken to your Hospitable login page to finish authorising the connection there.

If you chose Import new listings, you will receive an email within a few minutes once your listings are in Houfy. If you chose Map existing listings, you map them on the next screen.

Added a new property in Hospitable later? It will not appear on its own - open Software Partners, go to your Hospitable listings and click Pull New Listings.

Sync frequency

Houfy pulls rates, availability and listing content from Hospitable about twice a day, and each run takes an hour or two to work through every account, so allow a little time after you make a change in Hospitable. The connection is a pull, not a push: Houfy fetches from Hospitable, so nothing reaches Houfy until the next run. Listing data and pricing are on that daily cycle. Reservations are the exception and sync instantly.

If a property stops updating on Houfy and stays on one price, check it in Hospitable first - a property that has been deleted, muted, or is on a lapsed Hospitable subscription can no longer be read by Houfy. If it is live and healthy in Hospitable and still frozen on Houfy, contact us.
