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 reservation.
createReservation() accepts and requires different fields depending on the status provided and your permissions.
Status and source
If a status is not provided, it will be set to:
RESERVEDif manual approval is not required for confirmationREQUESTEDif manual approval is required for confirmation.
A reservation created with any source other than WALK_IN requires the reservation.reservee.phone and reservation.reservee.firstName fields.
Attempting to create a reservation without these fields will result in an error.
Permissions
Including the fields status, source, reservation.details.tableIds, reservation.details.endDate, ignoreReservationLocationConflicts, or ignoreTableCombinationConflicts in the request requires additional permissions. See this API's Introduction article for more information.
If source is not provided, its value is set depending on the permissions of the user making the call. See this API's Introduction article for more information.
