What can you do with Property Details API

The following are the benefits of using the property-api:

• Create or update a property's details such as name, property category, check in/out time and physical location without impacting other information.
• Edit the property location by changing the property's latitude and longitude values.
• Specify an external property ID while creating a property. This could be the ID of the property within your system and may be useful for you while you're debugging or testing your integration.
• Create a property ID quickly by providing minimum information. Add the rest of the details later using other endpoints.
• See an improved request and response body structure in Json.
• Get familiar with the validation checks for property creation and property updates early.
