Requesting a Like A Local Connection
We're always open to new integrations. Like A Local can connect to Ventrata directly through OCTO, the open API standard for tours, activities and attractions that Ventrata helped found. Once it's connected, Like A Local could check your live availability and prices in Ventrata, and bookings, changes and cancellations made on Like A Local 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 Like A Local, send one email to your Like A Local contact and [email protected], so both teams are in the same thread. Say which products you'd like to sell through Like A Local.
We take it from here. Ventrata's connectivity team contacts Like A Local, shares Ventrata's OCTO API documentation and test credentials, and agrees the plan with them.
Like A Local builds and certifies the connection. Like A Local 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, Like A Local appears under Connections → Connections, and you connect it like any other reseller.
If Like A Local works with its own API specification rather than OCTO, we're happy to consider that too. We'll discuss the options with Like A Local after your introduction.
📗 TIP
