Process a Query message

If you sign up for pull requests or pull with hints requests, Microsoft sends you a Query message that specifies the itinerary data that you need to send in your next Price feed.

Using pull requests

If you use pull requests, Microsoft could send you a request that's similar to the following Query message.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Query>
  <Checkin>2017-10-20</FirstDate>
  <Nights>1</Nights>

  <PropertyList>
    <Property>223</Property>
    <Property>256</Property>
    <Property>289</Property>
  </PropertyList>
</Query>

Depending on the number of hotels you have, Microsoft may break the query up into several smaller queries with each query containing a subset of the hotels in the property list.

When you get the Query message, your response should contain a Price feed with the following <Result>.

  <Result>
    <Property>223</Property>
    <Checkin>2017-10-20</Checkin>
    <Nights>1</Nights>
    <!-- Pricing and other elements that changed -->
  </Result>
  <Result>
    <Property>223</Property>
    <Checkin>2017-10-20</Checkin>
    <Nights>2</Nights>
    <!-- Pricing and other elements that changed -->
  </Result>
  <Result>
    <Property>223</Property>
    <Checkin>2017-10-20</Checkin>
    <Nights>3</Nights>
    <!-- Pricing and other elements that changed -->
  </Result>
  
  . . .
  
  <Result>
    <Property>223</Property>
    <Checkin>2017-10-30</Checkin>

    <!-- Pricing and other elements that changed -->
  </Result>
