Requesting a Cookly Connection
We're always open to new integrations. Cookly can connect to Ventrata directly through OCTO, the open API standard for tours, activities and attractions that Ventrata helped found. Once it's connected, Cookly could check your live availability and prices in Ventrata, and bookings, changes and cancellations made on Cookly would be created in Ventrata instantly, with Ventrata tickets issued to the customer.
To set up an integration project:
Introduce us. If you work with Cookly, send one email to your Cookly contact and [email protected], so both teams are in the same thread. Say which products you'd like to sell through Cookly.
We take it from here. Ventrata's connectivity team contacts Cookly, shares Ventrata's OCTO API documentation and test credentials, and agrees the plan with them.
Cookly builds and certifies the connection. Cookly builds against the OCTO API and passes OCTO certification, then Ventrata certifies it with test bookings. Most resellers finish development in 2 to 10 business days.
Connect and sell. Once it's live, Cookly appears under Connections → Connections, and you connect it like any other reseller.
If Cookly works with its own API specification rather than OCTO, we're happy to consider that too. We'll discuss the options with Cookly after your introduction.
📗 TIP
See How to Request a New API Connection or Partner for what to include in your introduction email, with a sample you can copy.
Working with Cookly in the Meantime
Until a connection is live, you can still sell through Cookly in whichever way suits you, for example:
Reseller Portal: let Cookly book your products itself through your Reseller Portal, so its bookings go straight into Ventrata.
Manual bookings: enter Cookly bookings yourself in the Backoffice, so your capacity stays accurate.
Through another connected platform: check the List of Supported Connections & Partners in case Cookly sells through a platform that's already connected to Ventrata.
