This article explains how to reconnect, disconnect, or move an Airbnb account between Hospitable accounts.

Reconnect a Disconnected Airbnb Account

In rare cases, your Airbnb account may disconnect. This can happen after:

  • Changing your Airbnb password

  • Updating login credentials

  • Security changes such as two-factor authentication updates

To reconnect:

  1. Before you start, log into Airbnb on your browser, following any two-factor authentication prompts

  2. Go to Connected accounts in Hospitable

  3. Click Edit next to the Airbnb account

  4. Select Update

  5. Follow the prompts to reauthorize the connection

Once reconnected, Hospitable will:

  • Re-import listings

  • Re-import reservations

  • Re-import conversations in their latest state

  • Regenerate scheduled messages for reservations created during the disconnection

Note: Re-importing data may take some time depending on your account size. Hospitable remains usable while conversations and historical data continue syncing in the background.


Disconnect Airbnb from Hospitable

You can disconnect Airbnb either from Hospitable or from Airbnb directly.


Option 1: Disconnect from Hospitable

  1. Go to Connected accounts

  2. Click Edit next to the Airbnb channel

  3. Select Delete

Once disconnected:

  • Listings associated with that Airbnb account are removed from Hospitable

  • Related reservations are removed

  • Stored listing data is deleted

Note: Disconnecting an Airbnb account removes all associated listing data and bookings from your Hospitable account.


Option 2: Disconnect from Airbnb

To remove Hospitable (or any other software) from Airbnb:

  1. Log in to Airbnb

  2. Click your Profile picture

  3. Select Account

  4. Click Privacy & sharing

  5. Open Services

  6. Locate Hospitable

  7. Click Remove access

This revokes Hospitable’s access from the Airbnb side.


Can I Transfer an Airbnb Account to Another Hospitable Account?

Airbnb listings cannot be directly transferred between Hospitable accounts.

To move an Airbnb account:

  1. Disconnect the Airbnb account from the current Hospitable account

  2. Log in to the new Hospitable account

  3. Connect the Airbnb account there

Note: An Airbnb account can only be connected to one Hospitable account at a time.

Downgrade to a Limited Connection

If you want to use Hospitable alongside another property management software and do not want Hospitable to manage your Airbnb calendar: Airbnb: Using Other Software With Airbnb (Limited Connection)

This allows you to use Hospitable for messaging and operations while another system manages availability and pricing.
