For a variety of reasons, I am not API connected to VRBO. I noticed that when I updated my Cleaning Fee in OR, it did not get pushed to VRBO when I did my rates push. I can't seem to find in the documents if this is a manual update or if it is an automatic update. I'd appreciate if anyone could share their knowledge here.
Thanks

Yes, those surcharges are pushed automatically to Vrbo using the API. If you are not using the API, that can't happen.

You can use Channel Bridge to manually push rates to Vrbo without the API:

When you do that, the surcharges are rolled into the rates pushed, so they won't appear separately on Vrbo, but will show up as higher rates.
