Bookings Sync – bookings, updates and cancellations from Parigi.it are created in Ventrata instantly, and customers get Ventrata tickets.

Creating the Parigi.it Connection

🔐 Required Role Permissions: See Connections, Modify Connections, See Connection Key

Before you begin:

You must have a commercial agreement with Parigi.it for them to sell your products. To inquire about partnering with them, contact them via parigi.it.
You must have Parigi.it created as a Reseller in Ventrata with their pricing (retail, wholesale/commission) defined correctly. Note that this API connection requires that the reseller is set to the "Bill to my account" settlement method.

In Ventrata Dashboard, go to Connections → Connections, click + New Connection, and select Parigi.it from the list of partners.
Select Parigi.it Reseller from the list of your resellers (must be created before creating a connection). The connection will inherit the reseller's configuration like pricing, allowed destinations, products, etc.
(Optional) You can also set the connection Name of your choosing, which may be helpful if you plan to have multiple Parigi.it connections and would like to differentiate between them more easily in the future.
Press the Create Octo Connection button.

📗 TIP

If needed, you can also allow or disallow products or destinations on the connection level, in addition to what you have configured on the reseller.

Mapping Products to Parigi.it

Securely share the OCTO API key shown on the connection you've created to your Parigi.it contact and ask them to map your products using Ventrata's OCTO API, with pricing (octo/pricing) enabled. Typically, it takes no longer than a few business days for the Parigi.it team to complete this.

Your Ventrata configuration is complete. You do not need to take any further steps.

📗 TIP

Parigi.it can access all products enabled on the connection, but you can also provide the Product and Option IDs from the connection page when contacting them to specify what to map.

Managing the Parigi.it Connection

Allow or disallow products: limit which destinations, products and options Parigi.it can access. See how to allow or disallow products.
Rename the connection to tell several Parigi.it connections apart.

Connection Features Detailed

This section is for anyone who wants to know exactly how the Parigi.it connection works: which Ventrata OCTO API calls Parigi.it makes, when it makes them, and what that means for you. Each call links to Ventrata's API documentation.

In short: Parigi.it pulls everything it needs from Ventrata. It reads your products, checks your availability (and your prices, when it asks for them), and sends bookings and cancellations. Ventrata doesn't push changes to Parigi.it, so anything you change in Ventrata reaches Parigi.it the next time it checks.

Timings are typical for Parigi.it and rounded, and they can change if Parigi.it changes how it syncs.

Product Mapping	❌	You can't map products from Ventrata. Parigi.it maps them on its side, through your account manager or Parigi.it's portal. This works as follows: Get Products (`GET /products`) – when Parigi.it sets up your connection, and whenever it refreshes its listings, it reads every product enabled on the connection, with its options and units (ticket types such as Adult or Child). Get Product (`GET /products/{productId}`) – Parigi.it re-reads a single product to pick up changes to its options, units, booking cutoffs and settings. Mapping on Parigi.it's side – Parigi.it links each Ventrata option and unit to its own listing and ticket types. Your Parigi.it account manager does this for you, or you do it in Parigi.it's own portal if Parigi.it offers one. You only share the connection's API key. What this means for you: Parigi.it can only sell what it has mapped. When you add a product, option or unit in Ventrata, Parigi.it may see it on its next refresh, but it won't sell it until it's mapped. So tell your Parigi.it account manager whenever you add one.
Content Sync	❌	Parigi.it doesn't read your product content from Ventrata. Parigi.it uses the descriptions, images and other content set up on its own side, so update your content with Parigi.it directly.
Availability Sync	✅	Parigi.it checks your live availability in Ventrata. Ventrata doesn't push availability changes to Parigi.it. This works as follows: Availability Check (`POST /availability`) – Parigi.it sends a product, an option and a date or date range. Ventrata answers with each bookable day or time slot, its status (`AVAILABLE`, `LIMITED`, `SOLD_OUT`, `CLOSED` or `FREESALE`), the remaining vacancies, the booking cutoff and an `availabilityId`, which Parigi.it needs to book that slot. Availability Calendar (`POST /availability/calendar`) – returns one summary per day instead of every time slot, typically to show which dates are open in a date picker. Check at booking – when a customer books, Ventrata checks capacity again before it creates the booking, so Parigi.it can't overbook a slot that has just sold out, even if its stored availability is slightly out of date. Typically with Parigi.it: Availability Check: Parigi.it checks your products throughout the day, usually starting 16 days ahead and covering a single day per request, looks up to about 3 months ahead and re-checks the same product and dates about every 12 hours. Availability Calendar: Parigi.it checks each product about every 2 hours, usually starting about 5 months ahead and covering a single day per request and looks up to about 5 months ahead. Checks are busiest between 10:00 and 16:00 UTC, which suggests most checks are live, as customers browse Parigi.it. What this means for you: when you close a date, change capacity or sell out in Ventrata, Parigi.it shows it after its next check. For dates it checks regularly, that's within about 2 hours. Dates further ahead are usually checked less often.
Pricing Sync	❌	Parigi.it doesn't get your prices from Ventrata. Prices on Parigi.it are managed on Parigi.it's side, so keep them up to date with Parigi.it directly.
Promotions Sync	❌	Your Ventrata promotions don't apply on Parigi.it. Prices on Parigi.it don't include promotions you create in Ventrata. Set up any promotions with Parigi.it directly.
Bookings Sync	✅	Bookings and cancellations made on Parigi.it are created in Ventrata instantly, and customers get Ventrata tickets. This works as follows: Hold: Booking Reservation (`POST /bookings`) – when a customer starts checkout on Parigi.it, Parigi.it sends the product, option, chosen slot (`availabilityId`) and one unit item per person. Ventrata checks capacity again and creates an `ON_HOLD` booking, which holds the places while the customer pays. If there's no longer room, Ventrata rejects the hold. Confirm: Booking Confirmation (`POST /bookings/{uuid}/confirm`) – once payment goes through, Parigi.it confirms the hold, with its own booking reference and the customer's contact details. The booking becomes `CONFIRMED` in Ventrata, and Ventrata sends back your booking reference and the tickets (one per person) or a voucher (one per booking), depending on how your product is set up, each with a QR code and a PDF link. Parigi.it gives these to the customer, who shows them at your entrance like any Ventrata ticket. Expire: if the customer doesn't finish paying, Parigi.it never confirms, and the hold expires on its own and frees the places. Cancel: Booking Cancellation (`POST /bookings/{uuid}/cancel`) – when a customer cancels on Parigi.it, Parigi.it cancels the booking in Ventrata. Ventrata accepts this only if the booking can still be cancelled and the option's cancellation cutoff hasn't passed. Otherwise it rejects the request, and Parigi.it has to contact you. Change: Parigi.it doesn't use Booking Update (`PATCH /bookings/{uuid}`), so a change most likely reaches Ventrata as a cancellation plus a new booking. Typically with Parigi.it: Parigi.it doesn't set a hold time, so the default hold time applies. A typical Parigi.it booking is for about 2 people. Parigi.it also checks the bookings it has made, with Get Booking (`GET /bookings/{uuid}`) about every 4 hours, for example to reconcile its records. ‼️ IMPORTANT – Bookings sync one way, from Parigi.it to Ventrata. If you cancel, change or rebook a booking from Parigi.it in Ventrata, for example in the Dashboard, Parigi.it isn't notified. Contact Parigi.it so the booking is cancelled or changed on their side too, or ask the customer to cancel through Parigi.it.
Pickups/Dropoff Sync	❌	Parigi.it doesn't send pickup or drop-off details with its bookings. If your products include pickups, check with Parigi.it how it collects pickup details, or arrange them with the customer.
Custom Questions Sync	❌	Parigi.it doesn't send answers to your booking questions. If you rely on booking questions, for example names or dietary needs, check with Parigi.it how it collects that information.
Extras Sync	❌	Extras and add-ons can't be booked through Parigi.it. Customers can only book your main products and options on Parigi.it. Sell extras separately, for example on arrival.
Redemption Sync	❌	Redemptions aren't reported to Parigi.it. Ventrata doesn't notify Parigi.it when a ticket is scanned or redeemed. Parigi.it only sees a redemption if it reads the booking back from Ventrata.
Pass Walkup Scanning Sync	❌	Parigi.it pass holders can't be scanned at your entrance without a booking. Customers from Parigi.it need a booking made through Parigi.it before they visit.
Gift Card Sync	❌	Ventrata gift cards can't be sold or redeemed through Parigi.it. Gift cards bought in Ventrata can't be used on Parigi.it, and Parigi.it can't sell Ventrata gift cards.

Good to know: limits and details of the Parigi.it connection

Delays: availability and prices reach Parigi.it only when it checks, so there's always a short delay after you change something in Ventrata.
Cancellation cutoff: Parigi.it can cancel over the API only before your option's cancellation cutoff. Later cancellations have to be agreed with you.
What Parigi.it can see: only the destinations, products and options allowed on the reseller and the connection, and enabled for sale on the Direct API source. See how to allow or disallow products.
Tickets: Parigi.it issues the Ventrata tickets or voucher it gets on confirmation, so your usual scanning and redemption work as normal.
Test bookings: Parigi.it can send test bookings while it sets up the connection. Test bookings don't use your availability and aren't invoiced.

FAQs
