How to Integrate PriceLabs with NewBook
Connecting PriceLabs to NewBook
When successfully syncing with NewBook, PriceLabs can send rates, minimum stay requirements, and extra person fee for dates up to 540 days from today (for more on extending your pricing calendar see our article here). Setting up
integration with Newbook
To connect PriceLabs to
NewBook you will first need to create an account with PriceLabs -- if you don't
already have one, that can be done here
Then contact support@newbook.cloud to request a new connection to
PriceLabs. NewBook support will send you the API key needed to connect to
PriceLabs
Now for the rooms and rate
types, we want to manage in PriceLabs – we’d have to create a mapping.
The first
thing we are going to do is to create a Rate Type called 'pricelabs' and
enable it for all the rooms that we want PriceLabs to be active for.
To create a Rate Type, head
to the menu search in NewBook, locate ‘Rate Types’, and select ‘Add Rate Type’
in the top bar.
Once a Rate Type is created, then create a new
‘Rate’ and add ‘Rate Period’ and ‘Category of Accommodation’ and the newly
created Rate Type – pricelabs to this.
Once NewBook support has enabled the
integration, Head to 3rd Party
Booking Channels in NewBook and click on the PriceLabs Channel
Then click to ‘Enable 2 Way’ for the status
Now, in the Pricelabs mapping section, you’ll see the rooms available to connect. To map the room to Pricelabs, you will need to enter the RoomCode, which is the Category ID in Newbook. This can be found by navigating to your Categories page and configuring the ID# Column as visible via Column Configuration found in the Options menu. Enter the corresponding Category ID into the RoomCode field. Each RoomCode should be unique.
Please don't include any spaces or any other special characters and only have alphabets or numbers in the RoomCode
Only Against the “pricelabs” Rate plan that we
had created, enter the RateCode as pricelabs
Finally, come to PriceLabs, and click the "+ Add/Reconnect listings" button. Select "PMS / Channel Manager" and choose "Newbook" from the drop-down menu.
Input the API key into the appropriate
fields, and click "Connect"
You should see your NewBook
listings that have RateCode and RoomCode filled in to appear on your PriceLabs
dashboard!
Now you can set up your
PriceLabs account to have the rates that you want. Check out our Getting Started Guide for some basics, or join one of our Live Training Sessions to learn about all of the available customizations. When you sync prices from
PriceLabs to NewBook. We will override the pricelabs RateType that we had
created. These overrides will appear in bold text on the Rates Chart and you
can hover over a rate to see the min-stay pushed for that date. The pricelabs rate type will be your master rate. From here you can setup dependent rates
that will go to various channels.
- Once a successful sync happens, You can view each day's rate on the chart -- notice the dynamic rates in bold -- and hover over that rate to see the min-stay pushed for that date.
