Starfish (CampingCare/HotelCare)

Interact with the Starfish API for CampingCare and HotelCare

Overview

This node interacts with the Rates API of the Starfish (CampingCare/HotelCare) system to manage metadata associated with specific rates. It supports operations to get, update, or delete meta information for a given rate ID. This is useful for scenarios where additional custom data needs to be stored or managed alongside rate information, such as tagging rates with specific attributes or notes.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve meta information for a rate to display additional details in a booking system.
  2. Update meta data to add or modify custom attributes for a rate, like a promotional tag or internal note.
  3. Delete meta data to clean up or remove outdated custom information associated with a rate.

Properties

Output

JSON

  • metaData - The meta information retrieved, updated, or confirmation of deletion for the specified rate.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authentication with the Starfish API.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the Rate ID is valid and exists in the system to avoid errors when retrieving or modifying meta data.
  • When updating or deleting meta, ensure the 'key' parameter is provided; missing keys may cause the operation to fail.
  • If SSL certificate validation errors occur, consider enabling the 'Ignore SSL Issues' option, but be aware of security implications.
  • Check proxy settings if requests fail due to network restrictions or firewall rules.
  • Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow to respond; adjust the timeout setting accordingly.
