MEWS Integration
ABRA integrates with MEWS Operations Cloud to provide real-time synchronization of guest and reservation data.What Data Syncs
The following data is automatically synchronized from MEWS to ABRA:- Reservations - Booking details including confirmation number, check-in/check-out dates, and status
- Guest Profiles - Name, contact information, address, and preferences
- Room Assignments - Current room (resource) assignments and room types
- Loyalty Program - Membership status and tier information
- Account Notes - Historical notes attached to guest accounts
- Rate Information - Room rates broken down by date
How Sync Works
ABRA uses real-time webhooks to stay synchronized with MEWS:Real-Time Webhooks
MEWS integration uses webhooks exclusively with no scheduled polling jobs. This is the cleanest and most efficient sync architecture.

Reservation status mapping
For a full explanation of ABRA reservation statuses (including display-only “Arrivals” and “Departures”), see Reservation Statuses. MEWS calls reservations Service Orders. ABRA primarily updates reservation status when it receives:ServiceOrderUpdated(reservation created/updated)
MEWS reservation state → ABRA status
ABRA maps the MEWS reservationState into ABRA’s stored status roughly as follows:
MEWS can emit
ServiceOrderUpdated for non-accommodation service orders (spa/restaurant/etc.). ABRA only persists accommodation reservations.Initial Setup Sync
