This guide is intended for developers and technical teams to ensure a standardized implementation and reliable data exchange.\n\n# Prerequisites\nAccess is restricted to operators registered with Viator and their authorized reservation system providers. Integration workflows may only proceed following technical evaluation and formal approval by Viator.\n\nFurthermore, development **may only commence** if Viator registered operators are using the reservation system. For operator onboarding details, please refer to the [supplier sign-up page](https://supplier.viator.com/sign-up-info).\n\n# Getting Started\nReview the following core components to begin your implementation:\n\n- [What’s new](#tag/What's-new)\n- [Connectivity overview](#tag/Connectivity-overview)\n- [API overview](#tag/API-overview)\n- [Implementation approach](#tag/Implementation-approach)\n- [Frequently asked questions](#tag/FAQs)\n\nAdherence to these specifications is crucial for successful integration, guaranteeing optimal performance, data integrity, and a superior user experience for both operators and Viator customers. \n\nIf at any point you need clarification or help, please don’t hesitate to [contact us here](#tag/Contact-us).\n"

description: "The event notifications endpoint allows reservation systems to inform Viator of changes to events that affect salability, pricing, or capacity for a given date range. This endpoint ensures rapid synchronization of event updates with Viator.\n\nViator prioritizes callbacks for Event notifications based on the `updateType`. \n- \"AVAILABILITY\" and \"PRICING\" notifications receive the highest priority. \n- \"CAPACITY\" notifications are prioritized using several factors, including the proximity to the travel date.\n\nNOTE: If both \"AVAILABILITY\" and \"CAPACITY\" types are received in the same notification, the \"CAPACITY\" priority is used. \n\n**Automated Event Notification Enablement**\n\nNotifications must be sent only for **already connected product options**. Therefore, Event Notifications **must be enabled** for a product option immediately after a [Calendar API](#tag/Reservation-system-APIs/operation/calendar) request is received for that product option.\n\n**Automated Event Notification Disablement** \n\nNotifications for a product option must be disabled if a **422 Unprocessable Content** or **207 Multiple-status response** HTTP status code is received with any of the following errors:\n- INVALID_SUPPLIER\n- INVALID_PRODUCT_OPTION\n\nDisabling event notifications for affected product options will prevent further failed requests and increased error rates.\n\n**NOTE**: If a calendar request is subsequently received for a previously disabled product option, notifications **must be re-enabled**.\n\nThe event notifications endpoint replaces the existing V1.0 [Availability Notification 2 API](#tag/Deprecated/operation/availabilityNotification2).\n"
