Volty Hi Rachel! Park in the driveway on the left, which fits two cars. Your door code is 4417, and check-in is from 4pm, so 9pm is fine.

Perfect. Is there a coffee maker?

## What Volty does with Hostfully

Hostfully is the property management software and digital guidebook many vacation rental managers run their bookings and guest information on. On Hostfully Premium, the API key in Agency Settings lets Volty read leads, properties, amenities and the custom fields you keep per home. A guest asks for the Wi-Fi password or where to park, and Volty answers from that property's details and the guest's own booking.

- House details on request · Parking, Wi-Fi and pet rules come from what the manager stores on the property in Hostfully.
- Booking details · Volty reads the guest's dates and property before it answers.
- Inquiries with real availability · A new guest hears which nights are open at the property.
- Codes only to a matched booking · Volty shares a door code only with the phone or email on the Hostfully lead.

## As an automation

Describe it to Volty in a sentence; it drafts the automation and an admin turns it on.

- Step 1 · Lists tomorrow's bookings · Hostfully leads with a check-in date

## How Volty connects to Hostfully

Hostfully gives Premium customers an API key in the platform's Agency Settings. Our team builds the custom connection on that key, and an admin approves it in Volty before any guest gets a door code from it.

- 01 · Confirm the plan · Hostfully issues API keys on its Premium plan.
- 02 · Copy the key from Agency Settings · An agency admin copies it and shares it with our team over a secure channel.
- 03 · Mark what is guest-safe · Agree which property fields Volty may share, and from which day codes and entry steps go out.
- 04 · Approve in Volty · An admin approves the connection once. Booking notes and new leads start Off.

### The tools Volty gets

Each one is a switch on the Sources page in Volty.

- Match guest to booking · Reads
- Read property details · Reads
- Read open dates · Reads
- Quote a stay · Reads
- Add a note to a lead · Changes
- Create an inquiry lead · Changes

Reading tools can be turned on straight away. Anything that changes Hostfully starts Off, and once on it can be set to check with staff, so each change waits for a colleague.
