Integrating web-based systems
Web-based systems are typically integrated less for direct control of room features and more in search of operational efficiencies, for example:
- Arming welcome lights when a guest checks in
- Showing room occupancy state in a Property Management System (eg. Opera or MEWS)
Workflow for building an integration to an external web service
- Create an API key for the external system by requesting it via email
- In your request, tell us that you are integrating a web-based system, we will give you a Site Group Key, which allows access to all rooms
- Store the API key in a secure place
- Store a mapping between the needed object IDs in the external system and Mount Kelvin
- Build your application
