Sending conditions are rules that apply to a specific automated message and define which reservation status triggers the sending of the message.
Tip:
Learn more about the different available sending conditions (in general) and about sending conditions for Vrbo reservations.
How automated messages with sending conditions are sent
If the conditions are met at the scheduled sending time, the message will automatically be sent.
For example, you can set a sending condition for a message to be sent only if the reservation has been paid.
Adding multiple sending conditions
You can also add more than one sending condition to your message. In this case, the message will only be sent if all sending conditions are met.

For example: Let's say you set up an automated message with the sending conditions: "Only if number of guests" is more than 4 and the "planned departure" is yes. The message will only be sent if the reservation has 4 or more guests and has submitted a planned departure time. |
