Modernised interface brings streamlined development, flexible authentication and greater security for technology partners and hotel systems
SIHOT, one of the leading hotel management systems, has upgraded its SIHOT@360º API by incorporating new REST (Representational State Transfer) interface infrastructure. The upgrade enhances integration with partner technologies, improves developer experience, and enables modern, secure data exchange methods.
The provision of REST technology represents a major leap forward in the ease and efficiency of connecting SIHOT with third-party systems. A widely adopted and developer-preferred protocol, REST offers a simpler structure and clearer code for building interfaces between SIHOT and its partner network. This significantly streamlines API development and integration processes, while providing greater flexibility and more security in how connections are authenticated.
A major enhancement includes the embedded Token Service, which supports multiple Identity Providers such as Microsoft Entra ID and Amazon Cognito, in addition to the built-in provider. This ensures a secure, scalable authentication framework between partner technologies and the SIHOT platform. Developers can authenticate through the service and be uniquely identified for all actions within the interface – improving data integrity, traceability, and system security.
Carsten Wernet, Chief Executive of SIHOT, said, “Our REST-based SIHOT@360º API is a big step towards simplifying the development process and ensuring greater flexibility for our technology partners. By delivering modern, secure, and developer-friendly tools, we’re expanding the opportunities of harnessing a wide range of tools for hospitality management, operations and service – helping hoteliers and integration partners achieve faster time to market and stronger connectivity.”
The REST upgrade also supports more granular control and integration capabilities, allowing hotel brands to maintain high standards in both guest experience and operational efficiency through their technology ecosystems.
