The SKYTOOL API sono le interfacce di programmazione applicativa di collegamento con la piattaforma SKYTOOL. Si tratta di un insieme strutturato di servizi software che permettono a sistemi esterni, portali web, gestionali, piattaforme di preventivazione o applicazioni personalizzate, di comunicare in modo diretto e controllato con l’infrastruttura SKYTOOL.

Through the SKYTOOL API it is possible to integrate them into your applications flight search functionality, selection, detail and creation of the PNR up to the ticket issuance, maintaining full coherence with the fare rules, operational and economic conditions defined by the relevant consolidator. Operations carried out via API sono sempre visibili nel back-office di SKYTOOL consolidator associate, which governs conditions, accesses and application parameters.

Ruolo e funzionalità delle SKYTOOL API
Le SKYTOOL API non replicano l’intera piattaforma SKYTOOL, ma espongono un set mirato di funzioni orientate all’integrazione. Il loro obiettivo principale è consentire lo sviluppo di soluzioni personalizzate, come la creazione di pacchetti dinamici (volo + hotel), attraverso un accesso strutturato ai servizi di prenotazione aerea.
Importante funzionalità strategica sviluppabile ed inclusa nelle SKYTOOL API è:
Single Sign-On (SSO) Unified Authentication

The SKYTOOL API They involve the implementation of an SSO authentication client that will connect to an external SSO Identity Server, allowing the user to access multiple applications within the same portal (flights, hotels, services) without having to log in again.

Business models
The use of the SKYTOOL API It involves the purchase of an annual development license and one or more annual production keys, to be linked to each activated developed Application.

The main actors of the ecosystem are:
Consolidator
Airline ticketing provider, holder of contracts with global distribution systems and airlines and owner of the Platform SKYTOOL4CONSOLIDATORDefines fees, rules, and conditions for accessing the API.

Non-IATA Tour Operator or Non-IATA Agency
A client who wishes to sell dynamic packages but is unable to issue tickets. They operate through an agreement with a consolidator, whose platform they will use. SKYTOOL4CONSOLIDATOR and will use private rates. Requires a dedicated production API key.
You will be able to purchase the Development License directly SKYTOOL API or use that of a Integrator who already has it and will develop the Application for him.

IATA Tour Operator or IATA Agency
Client wishing to sell dynamic packages with both their own private fares and IATA authorization. They operate under an agreement with a consolidator and require a dedicated production API key.
You will be able to purchase the Development License directly SKYTOOL API or use that of a Integrator who already has it and will develop the Application for him.

Easily transform your competitive advantage and your ticketing ecosystem becomes more manageable, faster, and simpler!

Software Integrator
The development company that creates the final application. It usually purchases the development license or uses the client's license.
To ensure economic balance, a ratio between research carried out and actual emissions is applied (a “look-to-book” logic), with possible financial compensation in the event of intensive use without adequate production.

The SKYTOOL API They are aimed at operators with development capabilities, either internally or through an integrator. The main recipients are:
|Consolidators, as the hub of the ecosystem.
|IATA agencies interested in automating their search and packaging processes.
|Tour operators, including specialized ones, who intend to compete with dynamic solutions.
|Business Travel operators with advanced integration needs.

A Tour Operator does not have to purchase the entire platform SKYTOOL: simply enter into an agreement with a consolidator for access to the ticket office and activate the API licenses needed to develop your digital solution.
For each Application developed it is Production API Key required to be purchased on an annual basis.
