API Information

What's New

• Added capability to make passive PNR bookings. This is particularly useful when the user wishes to create Sabre PNR for bookings made outside of Sabre GDS.
• Modified .AddRemark.RemarkInfo.Remark to unbounded. - From now on our users can send more than 98 remarks in a single CreatePNR request.
• Introduced PostProcessing.ARUNK.keepSegments which , when combined with ARUNK.priorPricing="true" and segment selection pricing, will accurately apply flight segment numbering. (ASTSP-416)
• (10/28/2021) Added capability to pass or reference Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) data during a hotel booking payment card transaction. A new object 'PaymentInformation.FormOfPayment.PaymentCard.StrongCustomerAuthentication' has been added to the model for that purpose.
• (12/09/2021) Added capability to pass Visa special service document expiration date at .SpecialReqDetails.SpecialServiceRQ.SpecialServiceInfo.AdvancePassenger.Document.Visa.ExpirationDate
• (08/30/2022) The API will now return the full state of the reservation upon encountering unwanted flight segment status. This will let us see the actual flight segment status returned by the airline (such as UC,LL,NO, etc). Please note that you still need to enable reservation redisplay at .PostProcessing.RedisplayReservation.
• (10/04/2022) Modified flight booking price comparison to accept "0" value types. - This addresses [ASTSP-440] and from now on the users can compare amounts, percentages and expected total fare values with zero. Please be aware, that percentages will be short-circuited when compared with zeroes to avoid dividing by zero.
• (01/31/2023) Introduced a sleep mechanism which allows more time for vehicle vendor (Dollar/Thrifty) to confirm a vehicle booking. Such a scenario can be identified by the vehicle vendor returning "WAITING FOR DC RESPONSE .... RETRY IN {n} SECONDS" message upon committing the reservation.
• (02/14/2023) Added capability for Abacus customers to book passive American Airlines segments (YK).
• (02/14/2023) Modified business logic for ..AirBookRQ.RetryRebook.Option="true" - This was implemented in order to resolve [ASTSP-433] and let you retry the UC rebooking process in case of a failure. The following fields were added: ...AirBookRQ.RetryRebook.NumAttempts and .WaitInterval.
• (02/14/2023) Introduced code validation to prevent combining .AirPrice.PriceRequestInformation.Retain="true" with .PriceRequestInformation.OptionalQualifiers.MiscQualifiers.AirExtras.SSR_Code . This combination was never supported by the system and was causing API failures.
• (04/04/2023) Added capability to assign a Secure Flight Passenger Data (SFPD) document SSR to a lap child at .SpecialReqDetails.SpecialService.SpecialServiceInfo.SecureFlight.PersonName.LapChild
• (04/04/2023) Fixed an issue where a combination of segment select pricing and addition of a surface segment (ARNK) could prevent from correct storing of a price quote. This addresses the request described under [ASTSP-453]
• (04/04/2023) Added capability to break API processing when the newly booked hotel segment does not return confirmation number. This is controlled by a new boolean attribute `haltWhenNoHotelCF`, which, when set to true, will terminate the transaction once no confirmation number is present.
• (04/04/2023) From now on the API will trim leading "+" character from the telephone numbers sent at .TravelItineraryAddInfo.CustomerInfo.ContactNumbers.ContactNumber.Phonenumber. - Previously, such requests generated an error message ".FRMT.NOT ENT BGNG WITH" from downline systems.
• (05/30/2023) Starting with this release the API will attempt to apply brands selected by the user when rebooking flights with unconfirmed status codes by means of .AirBook.RetryRebook.Option
