How to enable API access to your Airbnb account?

Hello,

 

I am looking to to test CM software. I am looking on how to enable developer access to API.

 

Best regards,

Oleg

Hi Alex,


To enable API access to your Airbnb account, you'll need to go through an official Airbnb API partner, usually via property management software (PMS) or a channel manager (CM). Airbnb’s API isn't publicly available, so access typically happens through these partners. If you're testing CM software, start by working with a platform that is integrated with Airbnb. The software will manage the API access for you.

 

Alternatively, if you're looking to develop a direct integration, you can apply through Airbnb’s developer portal. Approval is typically given to businesses with larger-scale operations or those working with official partners.

 

Once you have access, OAuth 2.0 will be used to authenticate and authorize your API requests.

 

I hope this helps.

 

All the best,

Seems that Airbnb’s developer portal is not available anymore... please help!
