# Connect Your PMS

> Connect your property management system to Cendra in under 5 minutes. Cendra supports 45+ PMS including Guesty, Hostaway, Lodgify, Cloudbeds, and OwnerRez.

Cendra connects to 45+ property management systems to sync properties, reservations, guest data, pricing, and availability in real time. Connecting your PMS is the foundation of everything Cendra does — AI agents use this data to respond to guests accurately.

## How to Connect

1. **Open onboarding** — after creating your workspace, Cendra guides you to the PMS connection step
2. **Select your PMS** — choose from Guesty, Hostaway, or Lodgify (native), or select from 40+ additional PMS in the dropdown
3. **Enter credentials** — provide your API key or authenticate via OAuth depending on your PMS
4. **Wait for sync** — Cendra imports your properties, reservations, and guest data. This typically takes 1-3 minutes depending on the number of properties
