Apaleo (Set Up Connection)
To connect LIKE MAGIC with the PMS Apaleo, you need to create a Custom App. This guide walks you through the required steps.
Keeping reservations in sync. Apaleo notifies LIKE MAGIC of reservation and folio changes in real time through webhooks. LIKE MAGIC monitors that these notifications keep arriving, and our team is notified when they stop. We then restore the connection and re-sync the affected reservations. There is nothing for your team to set up. If a new, changed or cancelled reservation from Apaleo doesn't appear in LIKE MAGIC, request a check of the connection via a Support Ticket.
