Extend hold

POST/v1/hold/{holdRef}/extend
Idempotency-Key requiredAccepts X-Api-Key · oauthClientCredentials · bearer

Ask for more time on an ACTIVE hold where the supplier allows it

Answers the same HoldResponse with a later holdExpiresAt.Show moreAnswers the same HoldResponse with a later holdExpiresAt. The supplier decides the extension (OCTO extend; Example Activities re-hold); the platform never fakes one. A hold that cannot be extended is 409 CONFLICT details.reason EXTEND_NOT_SUPPORTED; an expired one is 409 HOLD_EXPIRED; same key, different body is 409 IDEMPOTENCY_CONFLICT. The new expiry is the min of every supplier clock.

APTSVC (airport services: meet and assist, porter, buggy, wheelchair, concierge bundles) is registered by this release beside FASTTRK. FNB (dining: restaurant reservations; aliases REST, DINING, RESTAURANT, RESTAURANTS; category DO, money model FREE, artifact CONF_NUMBER, served under the dining service key with base path /v1/dining) is registered since v1.7.0. GIFT (gift cards; category SUPPORT, money model MERCHANT, artifact VOUCHER, served under the gift-cards service key with base path /v1/gift-cards) is described from v1.31.0: until the backend seam change merges, domain GIFT answers 400 UNKNOWN_DOMAIN. AICONT (the Example Content experience-scraping service's operations; category DO, money model MERCHANT, artifact NONE, served under the aicont service key with base path /v1/aicont; a content supplier) has its typed intent from v1.39.0; it answers only where its supplier set is landed and ACTIVE. PARK (airport and cruise-port parking; aliases PRK and PARKING; category SUPPORT, money model MERCHANT, artifact CONF_NUMBER — the supplier's gate barcode is the order's BARCODE document — served under the parking service key with base path /v1/parking) has its typed intent and its verb book from v1.55.0.

The post-booking verbs (cancel-quote, cancel, amend), the order reads, and capture and refund on an existing payment intent (whose 403 is PaymentForbidden) stay up, so no traveller is stranded.

    RATE_LIMITED — the API key or its tenant is over a rate limit; wait for Retry-After, then retry.Show moreRATE_LIMITED — the API key or its tenant is over a rate limit; wait for Retry-After, then retry. Every routed request is counted against two token buckets, the key's and the tenant's (all its keys together): 50 requests a second with a burst of 100 on the standard plan. Every travel verb except polling a search also spends from a supplier budget, per key and per tenant: 10 requests a second with a burst of 20, and a plan may add a daily quota of supplier calls. Answers carry the IETF RateLimit header fields for the tightest bucket consulted (RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, RateLimit-Reset, RateLimit-Policy); a refusal adds Retry-After and details.scope (KEY or TENANT), details.budget (PLATFORM or SUPPLIER), details.reason (RATE or DAILY_QUOTA), details.tier and details.retryAfterMs. A sandbox may run with the limiter off, in which case none of these headers is sent. A search that is still warming is a different answer with a different meaning (keep polling). with the key-velocity check on, also details.reason VELOCITY_LIMIT, a soft breach of the API key's own scope (components/responses/VelocityLimited), nextAction slow_down.
