How to connect Cloudbeds

Follow these simple steps to connect Cloudbeds and Orana Stay

Who is Orana Stay

Orana Stay is a digital guest experience app that uses existing data from Cloudbeds plus the power of OpenAI to create digital guest guides that can be sent to guest almost immediately. This allows you to satify the immediate need to free up your time to focus on adding and expanding the content to add even more benefit to your guests.

Current Limitations

The creation of the guides is completely depending on the data present in your Cloudbeds platform, plus the currently status of OpenAI. Once you create the guides in Orana Stay, you can easily change, remove and add additional information to meet your exact requirements. Each time you publish your guides, our software will automatically connect and publish the latest information from Cloudbeds and OpenAI.

These steps are you starting point with Orana Stay, and it should not be viewed as complete. What it does do though is saves you days, if not weeks, of time creating your base guide. What can take those days and weeks, now takes a couple of minutes.

How does it work?

 

We have built a standard template for Cloudbeds based on the most common information. We will automatically apply this template to your business and link this to all selected properties. Each and everytime you publish your guide to guests, we will connect to Cloudbeds and update the necessary information. The same goes with OpenAI, we will automatically generate the content for any specific AI content that needs updating.

You are free to make changes to your guides, either at a regional level, or at room level. Once changes are made to a linked chapter, the content will still update based on any specific Cloudbed specified merge fields.

How to disconnect?

 

You can either disconnect your Cloudbeds and Orana Stay integration from within Orana Stay or from within Cloudbeds.

A word of warning though, by disconnecting you will stop the automated flow of reservation data between Cloudbeds and Orana Stay, meaning incoming books will not be sent to Orana Stay. Furthermore, if you publish any guest guides, the content will be blank.
