Graph API Version

Product Catalog Hotels

Hotels in a catalog used in Dynamic Ads for Travel. See Dynamic Ads for Travel, Catalog Setup.

When you use this, you can provide Batch Requests to combine a number of API calls into one HTTP request.

For example, to get the total number of hotels in a catalog:

curl -G \
-d "summary=total_count" \
-d "access_token=<ACCESS_TOKEN>" \
https://graph.facebook.com/<API_VERSION>/<PRODUCT_CATALOG_ID>/hotels

To fetch hotels whose name contains "suites":

curl -G \
-d 'fields=["hotel_id","name"]' \
-d 'filter={"name":{"i_contains":"suites"}}' \
-d 'access_token=<ACCESS_TOKEN>'
https://graph.facebook.com/<API_VERSION>/<PRODUCT_CATALOG_ID>/hotels
