What does it mean?

This article explains how to enable a channel for the TourCMS API, a crucial step for distributing your tours via Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) or the TourCMS Marketplace.

 

What should I do?

  1. Navigate to CONFIGURATION > SYSTEM & SETUP > API.
  2. Tick the checkbox to enable the channel for the API.
  3. Click Save Changes.

On this page, you'll also find the channel name, the channel ID (which uniquely identifies the channel within TourCMS), the private key for each channel, and access logs.

The access logs are vital for troubleshooting API connection issues. Clicking on them will display the most recent API actions performed on that channel.
