GalapagosGDS api provides an electronic interface for partners to get availabilities of the tours for the requested data.
This section explains authentication and how to send a request to the GalapagosGDS API SA interface for a live test.
To perform authentication, GalapagosGDS provides a unique url for every partner to connect to the API.
The API must be provided the following headers to be authenticated by the GalapagosGDS.
[
"Authorization: Basic base64(email:pass)",
"Token: {token}"
]Request URL:
https://test.supplier.voyageport.com/availability/get-boats{token} must be in clear text in the URL to connect to GalapagosGDS API.
The Search availability request (SA RQ) allows GalapagosGDS partners to send GalapagosGDS request on Search availability. Below is a pair of sample request/response messages for Search availability update. For partners wanting to experiment with the API, the following requests can be posted directly to the GalapagosGDS interface at the authentication url provided. Make sure to include content type = text/json in your http header.
