Key Point: Each <OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ> message is treated as a delta update. For each property, date, room, and package specified in <StatusApplicationControl>, an update to any previously defined restriction only replaces the value of the same restriction, whereas adding new restriction does not affect other previously defined restrictions. For example, if a minimum length of stay for 2 days was previously defined and then a new message containing only a maximum length of stay for 7 days was updated, then this action wouldn't erase the previous minimum length of stay value.

Elements and Attributes

The OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ message has the following elements and attributes:

Note: Each type of length of stay restriction is set independently. For example, a message that sets SetMaxLOS doesn't overwrite a previously defined value for SetForwardMaxStay.

Element / @Attribute	Occurrences	Type	Description
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ	1	Complex element	The root element for a message that defines room rate availability.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / @xmlns	0..1	string (URI)	The XML namespace.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / @EchoToken	1	string	A unique identifier for this request message. This value is returned in the response message. Allowed characters are a-z, A-Z, 0-9, _ (underscore), and - (dash).
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / @TimeStamp	1	DateTime	The creation date and time of this message.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / @Version	1	decimal	The OpenTravel message version.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / POS	0..1	POS	A container for specifying the partner account for this message. It is typically used if your backend provides price feeds for multiple partner accounts.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / POS/ Source	1	Source	Required if <POS> is present. A container for the <RequestorID>.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / POS / RequestorID	1	RequestorID	Required if <POS>is present. Defines the partner account.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / POS / RequestorID / @ID	1	string	The partner account for this message. This string value is the Partner key value listed on the Account settings page in Hotel Center. Note: If you have a backend that provides feeds for multiple accounts, this value needs to match the partner attribute value of your Transaction (Property Data) message and the ID attribute value in the <RequestorID> element of your <OTA_HotelRateAmountNotifRQ> message for the same account.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages	1	AvailStatusMessages	A container for one or more <AvailStatusMessage> elements.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / @HotelCode	1	string	The unique identifier for the property. This value must match the Hotel ID specified using <id> in the <listing> element in the Hotel List Feed. The Hotel ID is also listed in Hotel Center.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage	1..n	AvailStatusMessage	Defines room rate availability and restrictions for different time ranges for a single property.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / @BookingLimit	1	integer	Note: The OTA_HotelInvCountNotifRQ message is preferred over setting this attribute. The number of remaining rooms that can be booked for the date range in <StatusApplicationControl>. If BookingLimit is specified, <StatusApplicationControl> must specify InvTypeCode, and the <AvailStatusMessage> cannot contain <LengthOfStay> or <RestrictionStatus>. Must be equal to or greater than 0. Defaults to 0 if negative or not provided. Note: To establish room availability for a given <StatusApplicationControl> setting, the BookingLimit attribute must be set at least once.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl	1	StatusApplicationControl	Defines the date range, as well as the identifiers for the room type —InvTypeCode and rate plan —RatePlanCode.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @Start	1	Date	The starting date based on the property's time zone that is inclusive of the date range.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @End	1	Date	The ending date (based on the property's time zone), inclusive of the date range. Must be equal or greater than the start value. If start and end are equal, the update applies to that date.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @Mon	0..1	boolean	Set to true or 1 to explicitly include Mondays. If set to true, other days of the week that aren't explicitly set to `true` are excluded (in effect, they are filtered out from the dates within the Start and End).
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @Tue	0..1	boolean	Set to true or 1 to explicitly include Tuesdays. If set to true, other days of the week that aren't explicitly set to true are excluded (in effect, they are filtered out from the dates within the Start and End).
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @Weds	0..1	boolean	Set to true or 1 to explicitly include Wednesdays. If set to true, other days of the week that aren't explicitly set to true are excluded (in effect, they are filtered out from the dates within the Start and End).
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @Thur	0..1	boolean	Set to true or 1 to explicitly include Thursdays. If set to true, other days of the week that aren't explicitly set to true are excluded (in effect, they are filtered out from the dates within the Start and End).
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @Fri	0..1	boolean	Set to true or 1 to explicitly include Fridays. If set to true, other days of the week that aren't explicitly set to true are excluded (in effect, they are filtered out from the dates within the Start and End).
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @Sat	0..1	boolean	Set to true or 1 to explicitly include Saturdays. If set to true, other days of the week that aren't explicitly set to true are excluded (in effect, they are filtered out from the dates within the Start and End).
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @Sun	0..1	boolean	Set to true or 1 to explicitly include Sundays. If set to true, other days of the week that aren't explicitly set to true are excluded (in effect, they are filtered out from the dates within the Start and End).
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @InvTypeCode	1	string	The unique identifier for the inventory (room type). This value maps to <RoomID> in a Transactions (Property Data) message.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / StatusApplicationControl / @RatePlanCode	0..1	string	A unique identifier for the rate plan. This identifier maps to the value of the <PackageID> in a Transaction (Property Data) message. The rate plan is further defined and referred to in <StatusApplicationControl> in both <OTA_HotelRateAmountNotifRQ> and <OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ> messages. The RatePlanCode attribute is not applicable, and must not be specified, when <AvailStatusMessage> contains the BookingLimit attribute. Must be specified if <RestrictionStatus> or <LengthOfStay> is specified.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / LengthsOfStay	0..1	LengthsOfStay	A container for defining LOS restrictions. Must not be present if <AvailStatusMessage> includes the BookingLimit attribute.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / LengthsOfStay / @FixedPatternLength	0..1	integer	The length of the pattern defined in FullPatternLOS. Note: This attribute must be set when using MinMaxMessageType="FullPatternLOS" and absent otherwise.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / LengthsOfStay / LengthOfStay	1..n	LengthOfStay	Defines restrictions on the length of stay. When using more than one <LengthOfStay> element, each one must specify a different MinMaxMessageType value.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / LengthsOfStay / LengthOfStay / @Time	0..1	integer	Unit value of the length of stay measurement. Note that a value of zero is treated as no restriction. For example, <LengthOfStay Time="0" MinMaxMessageType="SetMaxLOS"> means no maximum length of stay. Note: This attribute must be set unless using MinMaxMessageType="FullPatternLOS".
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / LengthsOfStay / LengthOfStay / @TimeUnit	0..1	enum	The time unit. Defaults to "Day" if not provided. Valid value is: Day Note: One "Day" unit is equal to 1 night stay.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / LengthsOfStay / LengthOfStay / @MinMaxMessageType	1	enum	Various types of length of stay restrictions. SetMaxLOS, SetMinLOS, and FullPatternLOS are arrival based. SetForwardMinStay and SetForwardMaxStay are stay-through based. Maximum values must be greater than or equal to minimum values.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / LengthsOfStay / LengthOfStay / LOS_Pattern	0..1	LOS_Pattern	Defines the length of stay restriction pattern. Note: This element must be present when using MinMaxMessageType="FullPatternLOS" and absent otherwise.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / LengthsOfStay / LengthOfStay / LOS_Pattern / @FullPatternLOS	1	string	A sequence of Y and N characters indicating whether each length of stay is allowed, from one night to the value in FixedPatternLength. Any length of stay greater than FixedPatternLength inherits the value at the final position. For example, with FixedPatternLength="4" and FullPatternLOS="YNYN", only lengths of stay 1 and 3 are allowed.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / RestrictionStatus	0..1	RestrictionStatus	Defines itinerary restrictions. Must not be present if <AvailStatusMessage> includes the BookingLimit attribute.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / RestrictionStatus / @Status	0..1	enum	Indicates whether the type of restriction specified by the Restriction attribute is open or closed. Valid values are: Open Close Note: By default, Google assumes that the Master setting for all products is Close. You can configure this through your "Default availability" in Hotel Center pricing settings. The "Closed" value in Hotel Center corresponds to the Close value here.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / RestrictionStatus / @Restriction	0..1	enum	This attribute is required if Status is provided. Valid values are: Arrival: This value prevents itineraries with a check-in date during the Start and End date range, inclusive. Departure: This value prevents itineraries with a check-out date during the Start and End date range, inclusive. Master: This value indicates whether the room rate is available for booking on the date. Note: setting Master to Close is known as a "stop sell".
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / RestrictionStatus / @MinAdvancedBookingOffset	0..1	integer or duration	Minimum duration before the arrival date (in the property's local time) for which this room rate can be booked. Valid value types are: Integer: The number of days before the arrival date. For example, a value of 1 indicates the room rate must be booked at least one day before the arrival date. A value of 0 (the default value) indicates no restriction on the latest booking time. ISO 8601 Duration (days, hours, and minutes): The number of days (and optionally hours/minutes) before the arrival date. For example, a value of P1D indicates the room rate must be booked one day before the arrival date. A value of P0DT6H indicates that booking must occur six hours before the end of the arrival date (i.e. 18:00) or earlier.
OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ / AvailStatusMessages / AvailStatusMessage / RestrictionStatus / @MaxAdvancedBookingOffset	0..1	integer or duration	Maximum duration before the arrival date (in the property's local time) for which this room rate can be booked. Valid value types are: Integer: The number of days before the arrival date. For example, a value of 30 indicates the room rate cannot be booked earlier than 30 days before the arrival date. A value of 0 (the default value) indicates no restriction on the earliest booking time. ISO 8601 Duration (days, hours, and minutes): The number of days (and optionally hours/mintes) before the arrival date. For example, a value of P30D indicates the room rate cannot be booked earlier than 30 days before the arrival date. A value of P30DT6H indicates that booking cannot occur earlier than 18:00, 30 days before the arrival date.
