Airbnb via Channex

Airbnb listings sync through Zyelra → Channex — not a permanent direct Airbnb Connect adapter. Mapping and ARI run in Booking Channels.

Partner / production gatedCode exists, but availability depends on provider or partner enablement.

What this connection does

Airbnb inventory and reservations are synchronized through Channex. Zyelra remains the PMS of record. Direct Airbnb OAuth Connect and agency Airbnb webhook URLs are not the supported architecture.

Before you start

  • Properties and units created in Zyelra.
  • Access to Settings → Booking Channels (channels permissions).
  • Channex connectivity enabled for your agency/environment by Zyelra platform ops when required.

Work with Airbnb through Channex

  1. Step 1In Zyelra

    Open Booking Channels

    Go to Settings → Booking Channels. Use the Channex hub — not a standalone permanent Airbnb Connect form.

  2. Step 2In Zyelra

    Map listings

    Open Mappings and map Airbnb/Channex listings to Zyelra properties and units.

  3. Step 3In Zyelra

    Monitor quarantine and stays

    Review Quarantine for import issues. Successful imports appear as Stays in Zyelra.

Messaging and reviews, when available for Airbnb via Channex, use the Channex Conversations surface and can also appear soft-federated in Messages (OTA filter). They are not stored as agency email/SMS/WhatsApp conversations.

Not supported / limited

  • Permanent direct Airbnb adapter / OAuth Connect as the sync architecture
  • Agency-managed Airbnb webhook secrets for removed direct path
  • Full listing marketing content/photo CMS sync — often unsupported or limited via Channex
  • iCal as a substitute for Airbnb reservation sync
