Use cases and best practices¶
Using legal entity id first (API only)¶
Building with legal entity id¶
- Send legal details to Booking.com.
- Retrieve legal entity ID.
Booking.com sends email with a link to the contracting tool to the Accommodation Partner (AP). - Start building a new property using HDCN with the required legal entity ID.
Check the contract status periodically until AP signs the contract. - Set property to open and bookable using HSN.
Building after contract is signed¶
- Send legal details to Booking.com.
- Retrieve legal entity ID.
Booking.com sends email with a link to the contracting tool to the Accommodation Partner (AP). - Wait until the contract is signed.
Check the contract status periodically until AP signs the contract. - Start building a new property using HDCN with the required legal entity ID.
- Set property to open and bookable using HSN.
