# Booking.com: create a Roomdoo user in your extranet

> How to set up the Roomdoo user in your Booking.com extranet so connectivity can manage rates, availability and property data.

## Why it's needed

For Roomdoo to manage connectivity with Booking.com (rates, availability and property data), a **Roomdoo-specific user has to be created inside your Booking extranet**. This is a one-off step during onboarding.

## Steps

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open your extranet">
    Go to [admin.booking.com](https://admin.booking.com) and sign in with your **main user and password**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the account menu">
    In the top-right corner, click the **user icon**.

    </div>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open user management">
    From the dropdown, pick **Create and manage users**.

    <div style={{display: "flex", justifyContent: "center"}}>

    </div>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Invite a new user">
    Click **Invite a new user**.

    <div style={{display: "flex", justifyContent: "center"}}>
      <img src="https://mintcdn.com/roomdoo/xVfNzwKJoYNduOOs/images/channel-manager/booking-step-4-invitar-nuevo-usuario.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=xVfNzwKJoYNduOOs&q=85&s=0b895bece0051bd1e026a888c1aac072" alt="Invite a new user button on User account management" style={{ maxWidth: "800px", width: "100%" }} width="1073" height="174" data-path="images/channel-manager/booking-step-4-invitar-nuevo-usuario.png" />
    </div>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Fill in the new user details">
    * **Name**: use the format `Roomdoo` + your property initials in uppercase.
      *Example: Hotel Villa Magna → `RoomdooVM`*
    * **Email**: `otas@roomdoo.com`
    * **Permissions** (next step of the form), you must tick:
      * Connectivity provider
      * Rates and availability
      * Property details

    <div style={{display: "flex", justifyContent: "center"}}>
      <img src="https://mintcdn.com/roomdoo/xVfNzwKJoYNduOOs/images/channel-manager/booking-step-5-datos-usuario.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=xVfNzwKJoYNduOOs&q=85&s=cda1c0535d297cf56c2b0866ec5e7d54" alt="Invitation form with Name and Email fields" style={{ maxWidth: "600px", width: "100%" }} width="687" height="406" data-path="images/channel-manager/booking-step-5-datos-usuario.png" />
    </div>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Send the invitation">
    Click **Send invitation**. The new user receives an email with the link to set up their access.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  The `otas@roomdoo.com` mailbox is the connectivity team's shared inbox. When the invitation arrives, we complete the setup and the connection is ready to sync.
</Note>

## When to contact support

* Booking.com **rejects the invitation** or doesn't process it.
* You've sent the invitation but **connectivity still doesn't work** after a few hours.
* You can't tick one of the required permissions (Connectivity provider / Rates and availability / Property details).
* You need to **remove or regenerate** the user for any reason (e.g. the previous setup was lost).

<Warning>
  Don't use a personal or property email for this user: the mailbox must be `otas@roomdoo.com` so the connectivity team receives Booking's notifications and can act on them.
</Warning>
