Calendar sync

[Kristin1977]

Hi,

I noticed that syncing calendars with VRBO works fine, except that once a reservation date has passed, it no longer syncs into VRBO. So, when I am on VRBO, looking at its calendar, I see Airbnb's FUTURE booking reservations, but not Airbnb's PAST reservations. (same issue with VRBO into Airbnb).

Is there a setting anywhere that will allow me to see ALL past and future bookings from other imported calendars?

Hi @Kristin1977 😊, 

Thank you for asking this question here!

Did you find a solution on this?

Hi @Kristin1977 

Sadly there is no setting to allow for this.  You would need to go into each platform and view the past bookings there.  

The one thing you can try is getting the ical link from Airbnb and import it into Google Calendars which also works.

@Dave-and-Deb0 This is exactly what I ended up doing. Thanks for the response!

Hi @Kristin1977  Thanks  @Elisa 

Unfortunately, there is no setting within Airbnb or VRBO that allows you to change this behavior or view all historical imported reservations.

VRBO and Airbnb both treat imported calendar data as dynamic. They only import what is necessary to avoid double-bookings.

Possible workaround here is to use a channel manager. If you need a complete booking history.
