Activating and Configuring HSAPI for Weblink+ Users

Client Instruction to Activate Bluetent in HSAPI

Once you have decided to share your property data with Bluetent, you will need to contact the V12.Net Support team and ask them to Activate the correct Bluetent channel for HSAPI. It's important to request the correct channel for the V12 Support team.

  • In order to distribute properties to Airbnb and/or Booking.com, request V12 to activate the connection for Rezfusion Boost
  • In order to distribute properties to your Bluetent-managed website, request V12 to activate the connection for Bluetent as a Web Company. 

Follow the instructions below to submit a ticket:

Submit a ticket to HomeAway Support (Distribution → Email)

  • Product: V12.NET
  • Ticket Subject: Enabling HSAPI for distribution
  • Ticket Body: Can you please make the HSAPI channel specific to distribution for Rezfusion Boost and/or Bluetent as a Web company available? We will need all api methods enabled.

V12 Support should communicate back to you once they have completed this step. You can double check to see it if the correct Bluetent channel is activated by looking to see if that Bluetent channel appears in the Partner Picker list. Once it appears please follow the next steps.
