Create Held Reservation

Developer Preview

This API is subject to change. Bug fixes and new features will be released based on developer feedback throughout the preview period.

Creates a new temporary reservation and holds it for the customer for 10 minutes.

Creates a new reservation with the HELD status. HELD reservations are intended to reserve seats and tables for a party in a selected time slot while they enter further reservation details, such as names and contact information. Reservations with the HELD status are only valid for 10 minutes. Trying to change a HELD reservation’s status after 10 minutes returns an error.

You cannot call Update Reservation to change a reservation’s status from HELD. Trying to do so returns an error. Instead, you should use Reserve Reservation.

If you do not wish to have HELD reservations in your flow, you can create a reservation with all required details using Create Reservation.
