Hospitable connection

If you use Hospitable as your management system, you can connect your account to Etherly Sync. Bookings from every channel you have there — Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and direct — arrive automatically, along with their amounts, dates and cancellations.
The Hospitable card is for hosts who already use Hospitable as their management system. If you work with Airbnb only, the Airbnb Live card brings your bookings straight from Airbnb.

1. Issue an API key in Hospitable

1

Open Settings → Integrations

Sign in to Hospitable and open Settings (gear) → “Integrations”.
2

Create a new key

Under “Tools”, choose “API access” and then “Add new”.
3

Name it and allow access

Give it a name (e.g. Etherly) and allow access to properties and reservations.
4

Copy the key

Copy the key that appears. Hospitable shows it once.

2. Connect the account in Etherly

1

Open the Hospitable card

Under Settings → Integrations, find the Hospitable card and click Connect.
2

Paste the key

Paste the key into the “API key (Personal Access Token)” field and continue. Etherly checks the key with Hospitable before storing it — encrypted.
3

The first sync starts

Once the key is confirmed, the first sync starts automatically. Your properties and bookings appear as soon as it finishes.
Hospitable properties are added as a separate set, alongside the ones you already have. Each set keeps its own climate resilience fee (ΤΑΚΚ) categories and invoicing settings — you set those once under Properties.Airbnb bookings that already arrive from another connection are invoiced once.

3. Turn on instant updates

With instant updates, changes in Hospitable reach Etherly right away. Sync also works without them, on a schedule.
1

Issue the link

On the connection row click “Set up instant updates” — or Configure and then the “Instant updates” section. Click Issue link and copy it: it is shown only then.
2

Add it in Hospitable

In Hospitable, open Settings → “Integrations” → “Webhooks”, add a new webhook and paste the link.
3

Select the events

Select the reservation, property and listing events, then save.
4

Confirm

As soon as the first update arrives, the card shows “On” along with the time of the last update.
Need the link again? Click Issue a new link and add it in Hospitable. The previous link stops working.

What “booking needs review” means

If a booking has a charge the app doesn’t recognise yet, the booking appears under Bookings marked as needing action, waiting for you to confirm it. This is deliberate: every channel names its charges differently, and the amount that gets declared has to be the amount actually received. You review the booking, confirm the amounts, and the document proceeds as normal.

Managing the connection

From the Hospitable → Configure card you can see the connected account, the last sync and the properties that came from this connection.

Replacing the key

If you issue a new key in Hospitable, click Replace key and paste it. The new key must belong to the same Hospitable account, so the properties and bookings you already have stay connected. For another account, create a new connection.

”New key needed”

If you see this badge, Hospitable no longer accepts the key and syncing has stopped. Issue a new key in Hospitable and paste it here — your bookings and documents stay as they are.
Each Hospitable account connects once, so every booking is invoiced once.
