2.3 Webhooks (Event-Driven Architecture)

The documentation also covers Webhooks. These are not "pull" requests but "push" notifications. sevenrooms api documentation

  • How it works: You register a URL (e.g., https://your-server.com/webhooks/sevenrooms). When an event occurs (e.g., reservation.created or guest.merged), SevenRooms sends a JSON payload to your URL.
  • Critical reading: Pay close attention to the retry policy (e.g., exponential backoff) and signature verification (how to validate that the webhook truly came from SevenRooms and not a malicious actor).

Part 2: Authentication – OAuth 2.0 and API Keys

Part 8: Troubleshooting & Getting Help

Even the best documentation can’t cover every edge case. When you’re stuck:

  1. Check the Postman Collection: Often, the example requests in Postman are more up-to-date than the static text documentation.
  2. Enable Detailed Logging: SevenRooms can enable “API Request Logging” for your sandbox environment. Your CSM can send you a log of exactly what the API received vs. what it returned.
  3. SevenRooms Support Portal: The official knowledge base includes API changelogs (e.g., “Deprecation of v1/legacy endpoint on June 1st”).
  4. Partner Engineering Team: If you are a certified integration partner, you have direct Slack or email access to SevenRooms’ Partner Engineers. They are the ultimate resource for interpreting ambiguous documentation.
