    Automate adding/removing PIN codes for Airbnb?

    Anyone had success with any method of automatically adding removing Z-wave door lock codes with Airbnb?

    I may be not understanding your question, I can add/remove lock codes on my Yale z-wave locks with HS pretty easily. Are you asking if this functionality can be duplicated from the Airbnb app?

      Something to this effect here: https://august.com/pages/airbnb

      Airbnb has an API now, which can be hooked into to obtain guest booking information. Beyond that they send an email when a guest makes a booking, and the reservation calendar can be hooked into other calendars...

      What I am looking for, more or less, would be to have a scheduled event action set that would add a PIN code at a certain time during the day a guest would check-in, and then another scheduled event action that would remove the PIN. The next trick would be getting the PINs to be different, ideally generated from the last 4 digits of the phone number, but could probably work with something that's just random..

      There are subscription services that supposedly hook into Z-Wave smart locks that do this, but I think may require a Smart Things hub...:https://www.remotelock.com/

        You might be able to do this with a vb script. You could have it use the rnd function and email or text you the new code when it changes.
