Bookings

The bookings methods allow you to create, edit and read your bookings. Each booking contains one or many reservations.
Bookings
The required custom objects are specified in their own Objects section, complete with required fields and JSON examples. Creating and updating resources is as simple as sending in the resource using the correct HTTP method, whereas for other operations a unique id is sufficient.
When creating a Booking in production, you will need to use the following endpoint instead, which proxies the credit card details via DataTrans' PCI-Proxy service.This way PCI compliance is achieved:
​https://api.pci-proxy.com/v1/push/5775c7cf3b3e5dc0​
If you are using the Sandbox environment, you need to send the requests directly to the Katanox host using test credit cards.The rest of the requests can normally be issued using the normal Katanox host.
post
Create a booking
https://api.katanox.com/v1/bookings
Using this endpoint, you can create a booking consisting of one or more reservations, and Katanox will distribute them directly to the Hotels. Note that these bookings are flexible: reservations don't have to belong to the same hotel, might be spread over many different dates and contain many different guests. The booking object allows you to manage their business state in a unified way, while keeping the flexibility to modify individual reservations.
