Identify the exact property
Record the listing and the internal property it should map to. Similar names, copied descriptions and multiple units can make a superficial visual match misleading. Have the account owner verify the intended association. Do not use this guide as a substitute for Lodgify’s current connection instructions or Airbnb’s current account requirements; interfaces and supported arrangements can change.
Clarify what becomes centrally managed
Lodgify describes an Airbnb integration, but your task is to establish the fields and settings supported for your account. Ask which changes should be made centrally and which remain in Airbnb. Keep a written answer for rates, availability and guest communication. Do not infer full control merely because one reservation appears inside the management dashboard.
Choose a controlled transition
Agree the sequence with the provider and avoid making unrelated live changes at the same time. Preserve a record of upcoming reservations and intentional owner blocks before switching the connection. Use a supported non-chargeable verification method wherever available. A migration is not the moment to test a speculative automation rule on real guest data.
Check and retain recovery information
Verify the intended listing, a known occupied period and a known available period after the supported setup. Record any mismatch and stop expansion until it is explained. Keep the provider’s support route and the original mapping notes available outside the application. A successful initial check is useful evidence, not a lifetime guarantee against delayed updates or double bookings.
A before-and-after record
Prepare a private checklist with the listing reference, matching internal unit, known booked dates, known owner blocks and expected open dates. After supported connection, verify each relevant item without creating a real reservation. If the account contains several similar cabins, include a distinguishing property attribute in the review. This is an identity check, not a recommendation to alter the public listing while testing.
