Deprecated API

The Legacy Pull Buyers API, our initial Buyers API launched in 2012, is now deprecated and should not be further developed. Instead, we introduced the Hotel-X Buyers API in 2017, which serves as the sole API for new Buyers looking to integrate and participate in our Marketplace.

Market List

The Market List method returns a comprehensive market list from a supplier's access that may include translations to other languages, granting you access to all the categories configured by the Seller for a given set of credentials. The returned fields include: Market code, Market name, GroupCode etc.

caution

The amount of information and content returned might vary between Sellers.
