Connect: Booking.com guest messages

  • You can add Booking.com guest messages to the Console. This way you will be able to manage all conversations from this channel within the Console. At the moment, the chatbot can't handle conversations from this channel.
  • Although a direct integration with Booking.com Extranet is not possible at the moment, our team still wanted to ensure you have the most relevant channels centralized in your Console's Inbox. As such, we developed a workaround to facilitate how you manage guests' conversations from this channel. This method relies on the email channel. For this method to work, you must receive email notifications from Booking.com Extranet whenever there is a new guest message.

Note: You must have an 'Admin' role in order to install new channels.
