Today we are excited to share our recent achievements with you.





What‘s newWhat's new

1. A New API- productAddon Reservation API (/productAddon/parkReservation)used by Go distributors to send reservation requests for park access.


Disney has a "parkReservationRequired" true/false flag in their API for ticket products. When this is "true", the park pass reservation is required and this new API can be used in place of the customer having to go directly to Disney.  Any modification or cancellation for the park pass reservations would require the customer to contact Disney directly.


Distributors can use the productAddon Reservation API to plan their visit to the park and make reservations in advance if necessary. The distributors can send reservation requests to productAddon Reservation API and provide the attraction ids, the entry date and the reservation ids of the room package.


How to use:

  1. The distributors need to develop the API based on the following spec.

  2. The distributors can send reservation dates in separate requests for a reservation id.

  3. The response will contain both success and error messages for the reservations. The distributors need to parse the full messages.

  4. If the park pass reservation fails, the distributors can send requests for a different date or a different park.

  5. Only 1 park needs to be reserved for a ticket if visiting on the same date. If the visits are for two different dates, the request needs to be made for the entire entry period.

3. GO Console V2 Inspector Update

  • Distributor Inspector & Supply Inspector optimization:
    The “send” button position will be fixed and always on the top of the page.




  • The Inspector feature now offers support for result filtering.

            You can filter the results by Room ID and Rate ID, or you can filter by product status.



4. Update to the retry logic for Go 3 and Go 4 when bookings fail to be cancelled or confirmed.


Depending on configuration by suppliers, when the supplier allows retry, Go Distributor will send the 2nd request to the supplier by ignoring the response of the 1st request.


The supplier will check if the 1st and 2nd requests are the same, and will return the response accordingly. 

The logic enhancement will help reduce the manual handling of booking failures, and improve the booking success ratio.
