Request Guest Contact Info for CRM -NON BOOKING- (Inquires /Other)

I need a link that I can provide in a template when somebody makes an inquiry or at any time I would like to collect guest information. 

That way once the information is collected, I will be able to send quotes to the Guest.  

{BUFIXUP} seems to only apply to bookings, it does not appear to be usable for inquiries to collect CRM information.

Yes, that's correct, it is not, for several reasons.

1. Its purpose is to complete missing information for a booking, such as, not just the guest's contact information, but potentially their credit card, offering travel insurance, etc.  These aren't appropriate at the inquiry phase.

2. For direct-book inquiries, contact information is gathered when the inquiry is made, so we already have it.  For channel inquiries, contact information is not provided by the channel, and intentionally so - they don't want you to have it.  For the same reason, they block all links and identifiable information, so it would not be possible for a link of any kind to be sent to a potential guest who is merely inquiring.  Thus, having such a link would serve no purpose - it couldn't be used anywhere it would otherwise be needed.

Sounds good ken,

It sounds like what we need is a feature request in order to be able to send quotes to channels (and edit the charges).

A feature request wouldn't help much, I'm afraid.

You can already do this with Airbnb.

With Vrbo, they don't have an API to allow that - believe me, we've asked.  Hopefully they will add one at some point, in which case, rest assured we'll implement it promptly all on our own.
