SCORECARD

ExistenceGOODDocumented REST API with 530 plus endpoints, a Swagger spec, and a Postman workspace; the API plainly exists.
AccessMIXEDDocs and sandbox are open, but production credentials require a partner application and RMS certification, even for customer teams.
CoverageGOODEndpoints span reservations, rates, guests, folios, housekeeping, POS, payments, reports, and webhooks with no gaps named.
AuthPOORStatic API key and token credentials scoped per property; no OAuth flow is documented.
Docs & DXPOORRate limits, retry semantics, and webhook payload docs are sparse; partners learn the ceilings empirically.
StabilityMIXEDQuota policy and webhook delivery guarantees are not published; they are scoped per partner in certification agreements.
MORE FROM THE REPORT CARD
Supergood: RMS Cloud has an API, but using it means gates, contracts, or workarounds. Ours doesn't: stable endpoints, normalized JSON, managed auth.
