Oracle Hospitality Asynchronous APIs
For long-running operations such as adding, updating, or retrieving large amounts of data, there is a series of Oracle Hospitality Property APIs called asynchronous ("async") APIs. These all work the same way with specific operation details available in the Developer Portal API documentation. Simply search for "Async" in the APIs tab.
Certain business use cases also require Asynchronous APIs, such as the Revenue Management System business use case, so refer to those specific business use cases for details.
Business Context
The adoption of Revenue Management has become more prevalent among properties aiming to optimize the value of each room. The asynchronous Property APIs offer a means to collect and update bulk data efficiently. There are two distinct approaches to retrieve data from OPERA Cloud through asynchronous Property APIs and business event-driven Property APIs. The asynchronous Property APIs are specifically designed for revenue management systems, allowing smooth updates of bulk data like inventory, restrictions, and room rates in OPERA Cloud. These APIs are fully compatible with OPERA Cloud versions 23.1.x and above.
