Overview
The Content methods give you access to key static data from FastX and Sellers' own data: hotels, rooms, boards, chains, categories, destinations, and more.
In this section, the main goal is to help you retrieve and use FastX codes across your booking flow, so you can work with multiple Suppliers through a single standardized model.
At the same time, you can still access each Seller's own static data and native identifiers. This gives you both standardization and full transparency.
The metadata call is especially important when connecting to a Seller. It provides supplier-specific rules and settings (for example, release days and other restrictions), helping you integrate with fewer surprises.
What are FastX Codes?β
FastX codes are unique identifiers created by Travelgate to simplify connectivity across the Marketplace. They provide a unified way to identify hotels, boards, and rooms, so you can connect to multiple Suppliers using one consistent coding model.
To make mapping even easier, FastX codes are available in GIATA under the supplier name "travelgate". If you already use GIATA, this alignment helps speed up your integration.
You can retrieve FastX codes and enriched content through our FastX Content App. For full transparency, you can also retrieve each Supplier's native codes and static data.
For each Content call type (hotels, boards, chains, categories, destinations, and more), we explain:
- How to retrieve FastX master data.
