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