Overview

This node interacts with the Starfish API for CampingCare and HotelCare, specifically focusing on the Rates API's Prices operation. It allows users to either retrieve prices for a specific rate over a date range or update prices and related booking conditions for a rate within a specified period. This is useful for managing dynamic pricing and availability rules in hospitality or camping accommodations.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve prices for a rate between two dates to analyze pricing trends.
  2. Update the price and booking restrictions for a rate over a specific date range to reflect seasonal changes or special offers.
