Last Update a month ago

GuestAdmin has added various 3rd party integrations as you may already be using an existing platform such as Property Management Systems (PMS) such as Lodgify.com, Smoobu.com, Guesty.com, RentalWise.com and others coming soon, you will find these by navigating to the "Integrations" in our main menu on the left side of our online portal by accessing my.guestadmin.io/login 

 

Connecting all of these pre-integrated services all work in a very similar way, and all of them require you to access your account within these other systems to generate an "API Key" below we have provided a simple guide on how to do it for each one of the above services. 

RentalWise

Generate an API key in RentalWise by navigating to your user profile Your API key. The key serves as authentication for connecting third-party apps or custom development.


Follow these quick steps to get your key:


  1. Log in to your RentalWise dashboard.
  2. Click on your profile picture in the bottom left corner of the screen.
  3. Select the API Access or API tokens option Base Endpoints | API Documentation - rentalwise.
  4. Click the button to add a new access token or generate a new key.
  5. Name your API key (e.g., the name of the integration or app you are connecting, such as "GuestAdmin").
  6. Click Save or Create Base Endpoints | API Documentation - rentalwise.

Important note: The API key is usually only fully visible once. Copy and store it somewhere safe (like a password manager) immediately after generating it, as replacing an active key might disrupt existing integrations Your API key.

Lodgify

To generate and retrieve an API key in Lodgify, navigate directly to the Public API section within your dashboard settings.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  • Log In: Sign into your account on the Lodgify Platform.
  • Open Settings: Click the Menu icon on the top-left or top-right and select Settings.
  • Navigate to Public API: Look under the general or account settings sidebar and select Public API.
  • Copy Key: Your unique API Key will display on this screen; click the Copy icon next to it to save it to your clipboard.

Note: If a key is not automatically visible or you cannot access this tab, you may need to submit a quick request to Lodgify Support or your Account Manager to enable API access for your specific subscription tier.

Smoobu

To generate or find your API key in Smoobu, log into your Smoobu account, navigate to Settings, and select For Developers or Advanced > API Keys.

Step-by-Step Instructions


  • Log In: Open your web browser and log into the Smoobu Dashboard.
  • Access Settings: Click on Settings in the main navigation menu.
  • Locate Developer Options: Look for For Developers or click Advanced > API Keys (depending on your subscription tier).
  • Enable 2FA (If Required): If prompted, navigate to Manage Account, enable 2-Factor Authentication, and enter your verification code.
  • Generate and Copy: Click Generate API Key or Create API Key, then copy the generated text string to your clipboard.

Important Implementation Notes


  • Account Requirements: You must have a Professional (subscriber) plan to access the API. If you are still on a free trial, you will need to submit a support ticket to have the support team manually provide your key.
  • New Security Protocols: Smoobu uses a secure HMAC Authentication method. When generating a new key, make sure to also click Generate Secret and copy the API secret. This secret is only displayed once and cannot be recovered if lost

Guesty

To generate an API key (Client ID and Client Secret pair) for a custom application in Guesty, you need to register a custom OAuth application in your integration dashboard.

Step-by-Step Key Generation


  1. Sign in to your Guesty Account.
  2. Click Integrations in the side navigation menu to reveal the dropdown options.
  3. Select API & Webhooks (or OAuth applications).
  4. Click the New application button located at the top right of the dashboard.
  5. Enter your custom application's Name and a brief Description (both are mandatory), then click Save.
  6. Click the copy icon next to the generated Client ID and Client Secret credentials and paste them into a secure file.

⚠️ Warning: Your Client Secret is only visible once upon creation. Ensure you copy it immediately; Guesty redacts it permanently after you navigate away for security purposes.

Generating the Bearer Access Token


Guesty's modern Open API uses OAuth 2.0 protocol. The credentials generated above cannot be used directly in your application's endpoint headers; instead, they must be exchanged for a temporary authorisation bearer token.
