# Cendra + Elina Integration

> Connect Elina to Cendra to automate guest messaging with AI. Syncs properties, reservations, guest profiles, pricing, and availability from Elina via unified API.

Cendra integrates with Elina to sync properties, reservations, guest details, and availability. Once connected, Cendra's AI agents automatically respond to guest messages using live booking data from Elina — including check-in times, house rules, and property amenities.

## What Syncs From Elina

| Data               | Details                                                                   |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Properties**     | Name, address, amenities, descriptions, photos, room configuration        |
| **Reservations**   | Check-in/out dates, guest count, status, special requests, booking source |
| **Guest profiles** | Name, email, phone number, language preference                            |
| **Pricing**        | Nightly rates, seasonal rates, fees, discounts, taxes                     |
| **Availability**   | Calendar availability, min/max stay, advance notice                       |
| **Booking rules**  | Preparation time, check-in restrictions, length of stay limits            |

<Note>Exact fields depend on Elina API capabilities. Core reservation and property data syncs for all PMS integrations.</Note>

## How It Works

1. **Connect** — Select Elina during Cendra onboarding and authenticate your account
2. **Auto-sync** — Cendra imports your properties and active reservations
3. **Real-time updates** — Booking changes sync automatically
4. **AI responds** — Guest messages are answered using live Elina data

## What Cendra Can Do With Elina Data

| Scenario                      | How Cendra uses Elina data                                                  |
| ----------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Guest asks about check-in     | AI retrieves check-in time and instructions from Elina property details     |
| Guest requests early check-in | AI checks availability and offers upsell or escalates per your rules        |
| Guest asks about amenities    | AI references the property's amenity list synced from Elina                 |
| Pre-arrival message           | AI sends check-in instructions using reservation dates and property address |
| Guest asks about pricing      | AI references nightly rate and fees from Elina booking                      |

## Communication Channels

Once Elina is connected, Cendra handles guest messaging across:

* **WhatsApp Business** — automated two-way messaging
* **Gmail** — AI reads and responds to guest emails
* **Outlook** — AI reads and responds to guest emails
* **OTA & PMS Inbox** — messages from Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, and other platforms via your PMS

## Setup Time

Under 5 minutes. Select Elina from the PMS dropdown during onboarding and authenticate your account.
