Steps to import your E4jconnect/VikBooking property

Step 1: Log into your E4jconnect/VikBooking website(WordPress) & install the E4jConnect-PriceLabs plugin by using the WordPress native functions, under the menu "Plugins - Add New - Upload". 

Ensure the newly installed plugin is active.

Step 2: Use your E4jConnect Channel Manager interface to identify one registered API account under the page Settings, and to obtain your email ID and API password. You should create a new API account if you don't have any.

Step 3: Log in to your PriceLabs account, click on the "Add your listings" button on your PriceLabs dashboard, select 'E4jconnect/VikBooking' from the drop-down menu.

Step 4: Enter your E4jconnect/Vikbooking registered Mobile App Account email ID and password. Further, enter your website's base URL and click on Connect. 

Kindly ensure that the credentials(Email address and Password) are for a valid Mobile APP Account (and not those of your E4JConnect Account). If you do not have a Mobile APP Account yet you can create one for free by downloading the E4JConnect APP (available both for Android and iOS). Instead, if you already have one then please proceed directly to the next step. Click Here to know more.

How to resolve "Invalid login credentials" Error

If are getting "Invalid login credentials" error while importing your E4jconnect listings, the most likely cause is that the credentials you are using are incorrect. Kindly ensure that the credentials(Email address and Password) are for a valid Mobile APP Account (and not those of your E4JConnect Account). 

In the Vik Channel Manager Settings page, navigate to the Mobile APP section, where you’ll see all your active accounts listed. Click on the small gear icon (as shown in the screen below) to access the "API Password". This password, along with the email used to create the related account, should be entered during the listing import process. Providing this information should resolve the error you've been encountering.

If you do not have a Mobile APP Account yet you can create one for free by downloading the E4JConnect APP (available both for Android and iOS).

Kindly refer to this help article for more detailed steps on how to enable the API account.

Now you should be able to review your listings in PriceLabs. Kindly note that each room type will be imported in PriceLabs as a listing, so that you can review each room type individually. Furthermore, you will be able to sync prices and restrictions for each room type individually.
