How Does PMS Integration Work in AXP?

Understand how AXP integrates with your Property Management System to sync bookings, guest profiles, room assignments, and stay data.

Updated today

Summary: PMS integration in AXP (Alliants Experience Platform) automatically syncs booking data, guest profiles, and room assignments from your Property Management System — such as Opera Cloud, Mews, or Apaleo — into AXP, ensuring your team always has up-to-date reservation information.

Permissions Required: Roles required in AXP to perform this action are Brand Administrators, IT Managers, Location Administrators.

The PMS integration connects your reservation system with AXP so booking data, guest information, and room assignments flow automatically. This eliminates manual data entry and ensures real-time context for every guest conversation.

What Data Is Synced?

  • Booking Records — Confirmation number, dates, room type, rate code, status

  • Guest Information — Names, email, phone, nationality, language

  • Room Assignments — Room number when assigned in PMS

  • Status Changes — Check-in, check-out, cancellation, no-show

  • Group/Company Data — Group bookings and company associations

  • Special Requests — Notes attached to the reservation

How Does the Sync Work?

  1. Connection Setup — Deployment team will set it up before set live

  2. Initial Sync — Imports existing current and future bookings

  3. Ongoing Sync — Real-time integrations push within seconds; periodic integrations sync every 5-15 minutes

  4. Profile Matching — AXP matches booking data to existing profiles by email, phone, and name, or creates new profiles

Common Questions

Is the integration one-way or two-way?

Primarily one-way — data flows from PMS into AXP. Booking changes must be made in your PMS. Some integrations support limited two-way sync for specific actions like check-in status updates.

What happens if the integration goes down?

Existing data remains available. Conversations, profiles, and requests continue working. New bookings won't sync until reconnection. AXP backfills missed updates once restored.

Can I connect multiple PMS systems?

Yes, each location can have its own PMS integration configured independently — common for hotel groups with different PMS platforms at different properties.
