Use this checklist after a successful sandbox integration and before routing live customer traffic to Unifystays.

​
Portal Setup

  • Production supplier credentials are added and the intended suppliers are enabled in the production portal.
  • A production API key has been created in the portal.
  • Your production backend uses https://api.unifystays.com, not the sandbox base URL.
  • The production API key is stored only in protected server-side configuration.

​
Customer Flow

  • Destination autocomplete returns a selected city, place, and hotel correctly.
  • The guest form sends a nationality iso_code from the Nationalities API.
  • Search results use the selected destination ID, stay dates, occupancy, and nationality.
  • Instant-mode search refreshes live prices while the customer views results.
  • Room options are requested again for the selected hotel before checkout.
  • The checkout presents any price or availability change returned by prebook.
  • Every booking attempt has one unique Idempotency-Key.
  • Your system polls booking status after booking creation and cancellation.

​
Failure Handling

  • Customers receive a clear recovery path for expired room or prebooking tokens.
  • Your integration retries only safe requests and reuses the same idempotency key for a booking retry.
  • Support tooling records the returned X-Request-Id for failed calls.
  • Rate-limit and server-error responses use delayed retries rather than immediate loops.

​
Ready to Go Live

Once live, enable additional supported suppliers from the Unifystays portal. Your application keeps the same API contract, search flow, and booking flow.
