Folio Action → POST add no-show fee
AI-generatedOverview
This node interacts with the Apaleo API to add a no-show fee to a guest's folio. It is particularly useful for properties that need to charge guests for missed reservations, ensuring that the fee is applied directly to the guest's billing account.
Use Case Examples
- A hotel charges a guest a no-show fee after they fail to arrive for a reservation.
- A property management system automatically applies a no-show fee to a guest's folio when a reservation is marked as a no-show.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| folioId | The unique identifier of the folio (billing account) associated with the guest's reservation. This is required to specify which folio the no-show fee should be added to. |
| amount | The amount of the no-show fee to be charged. This is required to define the fee's value. |
| currency | The currency in which the no-show fee is denominated. This is required to specify the currency of the fee. |
| idempotencyKey | A unique key used to safely retry requests without creating duplicate charges. This is optional and can be used to ensure that repeated requests do not result in multiple charges. |
