Overview

This node interacts with the Starfish API for CampingCare and HotelCare, specifically focusing on the Rates API to update rate details. It allows users to modify rate attributes such as closure status, minimum and maximum stay durations, rate name, parent rate linkage, and pricing rules. This node is beneficial for managing accommodation pricing dynamically, for example, updating seasonal rates or special offer conditions in a booking system.

Use Case Examples

  1. Updating a rate to mark it as closed for a specific period.
  2. Changing the minimum and maximum stay requirements for a rate.
  3. Modifying the pricing rules of a rate to apply a fixed discount or percentage increase.
