Getting Started

Getting started with Zaui I/O

The Basics

The process of making a booking through the API requires the following order of steps:

  1. Activity List Request - use this to map the products offered by the supplier.

  2. Checking Availability - you have checked inventory through your booking flow.

  3. Booking

    1. Create- creates the booking in the supplier system.

    2. Update (optional) - allows updating a confirmed booking.

    3. Cancel (optional) - allows cancelling a confirmed booking.

Activity List Request must be done once, but you may recall the mapping many times as the supplier manages the data for each product available for resell.

For Resellers of attractions, activities and tours.

You will implement Activity List, Check Availability, Booking Create. Optionally, you may also implement the Update and Cancel API calls.

For Resellers of ground transportation.

Please refer to the OCTo Spec implementation. The OCTo spec is preferred over Zaui I/O.

Authentication Credentials

All API calls are authenticated. To obtain your login credentials, please visit https://api.zaui.io/signup and use our automated reseller sign up to obtain your login credentials.

Credentials will be your reseller ID and your authentication token, and destination supplier ID. Credentials for the API can be obtained by signing up, for free, on our website: https://api.zaui.io/signup

Test Supplier System

During your development and testing phases, and prior to connecting to live suppliers, you are welcome to use the test supplier ID for all your API calls:

Test supplier ID = 200

This supplier has various tours and activities available for you to integrate your test environment with. Should you need to see a specific activity type in this system, which is not present, please contact our support staff at connectivity@zaui.com
