Booking flow via API
I need to build a custom website on top of Lodgify's API, but I don't want to use Lodgify's checkout page. So, when a guest starts to book, a checkout process will be on the website instead of redirecting to Lodgify's checkout page. The only thing I will need is probably Lodgify's payment page so that I don't need to develop integrations with payment systems myself.
Is it possible to achieve this via API?
What I'm trying to do:
1. Create a booking using <https://api.lodgify.com/v1/reservation/booking/> with the status Open.
2. Create a quote using <https://api.lodgify.com/v1/reservation/booking/id/quote>
3. Get a payment link using <https://api.lodgify.com/v2/reservations/bookings/id/quote/paymentLink>
When I open a payment link, it says: Cannot make a Payment when Quote status is Not sent.
Am I doing everything correctly or should I use different endpoints and different flow? Also, if I do everything correctly, how to change the quote's status to "Sent" from "Not sent"?
Thanks.

Webhook not displaying booking information
I'm trying to capture the event after a guest books a property. I've logged over 70 webhook attempts trying to identify when a guest books so that I can create a code and email it to them.
Previously, I was using the event "booking_new_status_booked" but that event never triggered despite having many confirmed bookings to various platforms. Lodgify doesn't have webhook history so I was told to use "booking_new_any_status" to capture a broader subset of events and to extrapolate booking status from there.
Over the last week, I've been logging every webhook attempt on my server with the event "booking_new_any_status". I've received 70+ webhook objects and none of them clearly define a booking as booked/paid for/settled.
Could you please provide the webhook event type, as well as which field I should be looking for, in order to identify whenever a booking is paid for? Surely someone has done this before.
Thanks in advance!
P.S. Here are parts of the webhook objects if the dev team is curious:
From AirBnB:
```
"source": "AirbnbIntegration",
"source_text": "HMKRXPHM32",
"status": "Open",
"type": "Booking"
"current_order": {
"scheduled_policy_text": "Not scheduled in Lodgify",
"security_deposit_text": "",
"status": "PendingForOwner"
...
}
```
The outer status was always "Open", even after the guest pays and the booking is created. The current_order.status was either "NotSent" or "PendingForOwner". (I have Instant Bookings that don't require approval so I don't know how a status would be pending on my part.
From VRBO:
```
"source": "HomeAway",
"source_text": "VRBO",
"status": "Open",
"current_order": {
"status": "PendingForOwner"
},
```
Similar to AirBnB- Status is always "Open" without a "Booked".
The only promising response I got was from Booking.com:
```
"source": "BookingCom",
"source_text": "4168736883|4470453417",
"status": "Booked",
"type": "Booking"
```

Get all amenities from the API
Hi,
I'm wondering how can I get the amenities list from the API.
For example, the OVEN is called rental.amenities.amenities-picker.amenity-oven in the app.lodgify.com HTML source.
When I call v2/properties/{id}/rooms, I get this name for the OVEN : CookingEatingOven.
Is there a way to get all available amenities (even those with no properties)?
I would like to be able to get all names, for each amenities (CookingEatingOven, CookingEatingRefrigerator, etc.)
Thank you,
