Integrations overview

Find out how integrating Minut with other systems can automate your property management business.

Written by Emilie Pain

Minut integrates with the booking platforms, smart locks, thermostats, cameras and tools you already use, so you can automate more of your property management. This article groups the integrations by type and shows which plans include them. For answers to common questions, see the Integrations FAQ.

Where to connect integrations: all integrations are connected in the web app at web.minut.com → Integrations in the left-hand menu. The mobile app does not have an integrations screen.

Online Travel Agencies (OTAs)

Available on: Standard and Pro

Online travel agencies (OTAs) bring your guests' stays into Minut. Minut has a direct integration with Airbnb. With it, Minut imports guest phone numbers, which means Call Assist and Autocall work with Airbnb-only setups, with no PMS needed. You can choose how noise alert messages are delivered: via the Airbnb inbox, SMS, or both. To change this, go to Integrations → Airbnb → Settings.

Minut does not have a direct integration with Booking.com or Vrbo. Many of the PMS platforms below support them, so connecting one of those brings in stays from all the platforms it manages.

A rental unit can be linked to your PMS or to Airbnb, but not both at the same time. If your PMS already syncs your Airbnb listings, use the PMS as the single source of stay data.


Property Management System (PMS)

Available on: Pro

Integrating Minut with your Property Management System (PMS) syncs your booking schedule with Minut to automate messaging in case of noise issues. When you connect your PMS, the following information about the people staying at the property is synchronised:

  • Name

  • Phone number

  • Check-in and check-out times

  • The property they are staying at

When stay information is available and a loud noise is detected at a property, Minut can communicate with the people staying there on your behalf using text messages, Autocall, or Call Assist. Configure noise alert messages in your Noise Preset, and check-in, check-out and other scheduled messages in Guest Journey.

Messages sent by SMS are one-way, so guests cannot reply by SMS. Guests can reply when a message is delivered through WhatsApp, the Airbnb inbox, or a PMS that routes replies back to Minut, and those replies appear in your Inbox.

Stay reservations are deleted from Minut (not your PMS) 14 days after the check-out date.

If you connect both a PMS and the Airbnb integration, Minut will send messages to the people staying in the property via phone and the Airbnb Inbox.

Supported PMS platforms (click a name for the setup guide):

Don't use a PMS? You can also import reservations with the CSV reservation importer.

Your PMS isn't listed? You can connect it with Zapier (Pro) or the Minut API (Enterprise).


Smart locks

Available on: Standard and Pro

Smart lock integrations let Minut generate unique access codes for each stay and share them with guests before check-in by text message. Codes are tied to the stay dates and expire at checkout, and guests receive a link to the Minut Guest app where they can see their code and, on compatible locks, lock and unlock the door. A booking integration (PMS or Airbnb) is needed for access codes to be fully automated; without one, you can still connect a lock but will need to create and share codes manually.

Supported smart locks: 2N · 33Lock · Akiles · Akuvox · Alfred · August · igloohome · KEYINCODE · Kwikset · Lockly · Nuki · Salto · Schlage · SmartThings · Tedee · Ultraloq · Wyze · Yale.


Climate control

Available on: Standard and Pro

Thermostat integrations adjust the temperature based on your booking schedule. Between stays, Minut sets the thermostat to an energy-saving mode, and before the next stay begins it restores the temperature you have chosen, which cuts energy costs without manual work.

  • tado°: automatically turns off the AC and lowers the temperature on your tado° Smart Thermostat in between bookings.

  • Google Nest: automatically sets the thermostat to "Eco" in between bookings and sets the temperature and mode for upcoming stays.

  • ecobee: adjusts your ecobee thermostat around your bookings in the same way.


Cameras

Available on: Standard and Pro

The Ring integration connects your Ring doorbell cameras to Minut. You can watch a live stream and review motion and doorbell events from the Minut app, and guests staying at the property can see a live view and a log of door events through the Guest app.

The Ring integration is available to US customers only.


Guest experience

Available on: No Minut plan requirement. Enso Connect's own pricing applies.

Guest experience integrations let a dedicated guest communication platform handle messaging and team notifications when Minut detects something at your property. They complement Minut's own guest tools and are connected from Integrations in the web app.

  • Enso Connect: a guest experience platform for vacation rentals and boutique hotels. Once connected, Minut noise events and low battery alerts can trigger guest messages (by email, SMS, WhatsApp or Airbnb messages) and team notifications (by SMS, email or mobile) sent from Enso Connect, and each event is logged in Enso Connect's messaging inbox together with the guest it relates to.

If you use both Minut's own guest messaging and Enso Connect for the same noise event, guests may receive duplicate messages. If you route communications through Enso Connect, consider turning off SMS and Autocall in your Noise Preset.

Looking for Minut's own guest tools? See Messaging, Inbox, Guest Journey and The Guest App: overview for Hosts.


Custom

Available on: Zapier on Pro; Minut API on Enterprise

With Zapier and Minut's API (available for Enterprise customers), businesses can automate operations and processes. You can, for instance:

  • Schedule maintenance when a sensor needs recharging

  • Notify team members on Slack when temperature drops below freezing

  • Create custom reports after a stay
