Creating the Paris en un Clic Connection

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

Before you begin:

  • You must have a commercial agreement with Paris en un Clic for them to sell your products. To inquire about partnering with them, contact them via parisenunclic.fr.

  • You must have Paris en un Clic 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.

 

  1. In Ventrata Dashboard, go to Connections → Connections, click + New Connection, and select Paris en un Clic (powered by TourBiz) from the list of partners.

  2. Select Paris en un Clic 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.

  3. (Optional) You can also set the connection Name of your choosing, which may be helpful if you plan to have multiple Paris en un Clic connections and would like to differentiate between them more easily in the future.

  4. 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 Paris en un Clic

Securely share the OCTO API key shown on the connection you've created with your Paris en un Clic 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 Paris en un Clic team to complete this.

 

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

 

📗 TIP

Paris en un Clic 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.

Connection Features Detailed

This section is for anyone who wants to know exactly how the Paris en un Clic connection works: which Ventrata OCTO API calls Paris en un Clic makes (through TourBiz's certified integration), when it makes them, and what that means for you. Each call links to Ventrata's API documentation.

 

In short: Paris en un Clic pulls everything it needs from Ventrata. It reads your products, checks your availability and prices, and sends bookings and cancellations. Ventrata doesn't push changes to Paris en un Clic, so anything you change in Ventrata reaches Paris en un Clic the next time it checks.

 

Timings are typical for Paris en un Clic and rounded, and they can change if Paris en un Clic changes how it syncs.

 

Product Mapping

❌

You can't map products from Ventrata. Paris en un Clic maps them on its side, through your account manager or Paris en un Clic's portal.

This works as follows:

  • Get Products (GET /products) – when Paris en un Clic 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}) – Paris en un Clic re-reads a single product to pick up changes to its options, units, booking cutoffs and settings.

  • Mapping on Paris en un Clic's side – Paris en un Clic links each Ventrata option and unit to its own listing and ticket types. Your Paris en un Clic account manager does this for you, or you do it in Paris en un Clic's own portal if Paris en un Clic offers one. You only share the connection's API key.

 

Typically with Paris en un Clic:

  • Paris en un Clic reads your full product list every few minutes.

 

What this means for you: Paris en un Clic can only sell what it has mapped. When you add a product, option or unit in Ventrata, Paris en un Clic may see it on its next refresh, but it won't sell it until it's mapped. So tell your Paris en un Clic account manager whenever you add one.

Content Sync

✅ / ❌

Paris en un Clic can read your product content, such as descriptions and images, from Ventrata.

This works as follows:

  • octo/content capability – when Paris en un Clic adds it to the Octo-Capabilities header, Get Products (GET /products) and Get Product (GET /products/{productId}) also return your product content, such as descriptions, highlights, inclusions and images.

  • Content changes in Ventrata reach Paris en un Clic on its next product refresh.

 

Typically with Paris en un Clic:

  • Paris en un Clic requests octo/content.

Availability Sync

✅

Paris en un Clic checks your live availability in Ventrata. Ventrata doesn't push availability changes to Paris en un Clic.

This works as follows:

  • Availability Check (POST /availability) – Paris en un Clic 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 Paris en un Clic needs to book that slot.

  • Check at booking – when a customer books, Ventrata checks capacity again before it creates the booking, so Paris en un Clic can't overbook a slot that has just sold out, even if its stored availability is slightly out of date.

 

Typically with Paris en un Clic:

  • Availability Check: Paris en un Clic checks your products throughout the day, usually starting 17 days ahead and covering 31 days per request, looks up to about 4 months ahead and re-checks the same product and dates about every 2 hours.

  • Checks are busiest between 14:00 and 20:00 UTC, which suggests most checks are live, as customers browse Paris en un Clic.

 

What this means for you: when you close a date, change capacity or sell out in Ventrata, Paris en un Clic 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

✅

Your prices come back with every availability check, once Paris en un Clic asks for them with the octo/pricing capability.

This works as follows:

  • octo/pricing capability – Paris en un Clic asks for prices by adding octo/pricing to the Octo-Capabilities header of its requests. Without it, Ventrata sends availability with no prices at all.

  • Availability Check (POST /availability) – with pricing on, each day or time slot comes back with your price per unit (ticket type): the retail price the customer pays and the net price you invoice Paris en un Clic, both from the reseller's pricing in Ventrata (retail and wholesale/commission).

  • Group prices – when Paris en un Clic also sends how many people of each unit type are booking, Ventrata prices that exact group. This matters for Booking Size fares and other group pricing.

  • Booking Reservation (POST /bookings) and Booking Confirmation (POST /bookings/{uuid}/confirm) – the booking comes back with its final retail and net price, so the booking in Ventrata always records the price it was sold at.

 

Typically with Paris en un Clic:

  • Paris en un Clic requests octo/pricing on all of its availability checks, so it sells at your Ventrata prices.

  • Paris en un Clic doesn't send the number of people per unit type, so prices come back per person, and group pricing such as Booking Size fares may not show correctly on Paris en un Clic.

 

‼️ IMPORTANT – Ask for pricing to be enabled. When you ask Paris en un Clic to map your products, ask them to enable pricing (octo/pricing) as well, or switch it on yourself if you map in Paris en un Clic's portal. Otherwise it may be off, and Paris en un Clic won't receive your Ventrata prices.

📗 TIP – If prices on Paris en un Clic look wrong, check the Paris en un Clic reseller's pricing in Ventrata first: that's what Paris en un Clic reads.

Promotions Sync

❌

Your Ventrata promotions don't apply on Paris en un Clic.

Prices on Paris en un Clic don't include promotions you create in Ventrata. Set up any promotions with Paris en un Clic directly.

Bookings Sync

✅

Bookings and cancellations made on Paris en un Clic are created in Ventrata instantly, and customers get Ventrata tickets.

This works as follows:

  1. Hold: Booking Reservation (POST /bookings) – when a customer starts checkout on Paris en un Clic, Paris en un Clic 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.

  2. Confirm: Booking Confirmation (POST /bookings/{uuid}/confirm) – once payment goes through, Paris en un Clic 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. Paris en un Clic gives these to the customer, who shows them at your entrance like any Ventrata ticket.

  3. Expire: if the customer doesn't finish paying, Paris en un Clic never confirms, and the hold expires on its own and frees the places.

  4. Cancel: Booking Cancellation (POST /bookings/{uuid}/cancel) – when a customer cancels on Paris en un Clic, Paris en un Clic 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 Paris en un Clic has to contact you.

  5. Change: Paris en un Clic doesn't use Booking Update (PATCH /bookings/{uuid}), so a change most likely reaches Ventrata as a cancellation plus a new booking.

 

Typically with Paris en un Clic:

  • Paris en un Clic doesn't set a hold time, so the default hold time applies.

  • A typical Paris en un Clic booking is for about 2 people.

  • It's normal to see more holds than confirmed bookings: holds from customers who don't finish paying simply expire.

 

‼️ IMPORTANT – Bookings sync one way, from Paris en un Clic to Ventrata. If you cancel, change or rebook a booking from Paris en un Clic in Ventrata, for example in the Dashboard, Paris en un Clic isn't notified. Contact Paris en un Clic so the booking is cancelled or changed on their side too, or ask the customer to cancel through Paris en un Clic.

Pickups/Dropoff Sync

If you rely on booking questions, for example names or dietary needs, check with Paris en un Clic how it collects that information.
