Force Content Updates

When performing a "Force content now" update to refresh a Seller's portfolio, please note that the duration depends on the size of the content. We recommend waiting a reasonable amount of time, such as a couple of hours, to ensure the update is fully processed. If the update is not completed after this period, consider running the force update again if necessary.

In cases where you've followed the steps above and still do not have the most up-to-date content, please don't hesitate to reach out through our Support Portal for further help. We're here to ensure you have the best possible experience!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Seller's content stored in TravelgateX database?
Yes, we store the Seller's static content in our database to enhance response times and performance.
How often is a Seller's portfolio updated?

Static content updates are carried out every 7-14 days, depending on the type of content. Our system updates a Seller's portfolio (adding new hotels) every 7-14 days. Hotels that the Seller no longer provides are removed every 30 days. For example, for a portfolio of 100K hotels:

  • If the Seller removes 50K, those hotels will be automatically removed from our side within the next 30 days.
  • If the Seller adds 50K, those new hotels will be automatically added to the Seller's portfolio within the following 7-14 days.
