How to Use the Apaleo MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: Can VS Code Copilot analyze room types from our Apaleo properties?

Yes, Copilot executes listroomtypes to pull your hotel's exact room configurations. It uses this data to write precise TypeScript interfaces that match your active PMS setup.

Q: How does VS Code Copilot handle Apaleo rate plan structures?

The agent runs listrateplans to inspect your active pricing models. Copilot then references these structures to help you build custom booking flows that calculate rates correctly.

Q: Can we run local tests against Apaleo reservation data?

Copilot calls getreservation to pull real booking payloads directly into your active file. This lets your team write mock assertions based on actual guest data rather than guessing the API structure.

Shared property models via VS Code Copilot

The `list_properties` tool retrieves your hotel group's master property list directly into your shared workspace. Copilot uses this data to help your team write consistent multi-property routing code. By committing the server config to your repository, every developer gets instant access to `get_property` payloads. VS Code Copilot references these real-world hotel structures to eliminate configuration drift across your team.

Build billing audits with an MCP Server

The `list_folios` tool retrieves live guest folios directly into your Copilot Chat panel. Your team can debug accounting scripts by asking Copilot to analyze real billing records. The agent pairs this with `list_invoices` to generate tax compliance reports that match your hotel's exact ledger. This MCP Server gives your entire engineering team a shared environment for auditing financial integrations.

Real-time booking validation in the editor

The `check_availability` tool queries room inventory directly from VS Code. Your developers can verify that their custom booking widgets handle sold-out dates correctly by pulling live PMS counts. When writing reservation pipelines, Copilot calls `list_reservations` to feed actual booking shapes into your test suites. You get accurate, context-aware code completions based on real hotel data.

Setup guide

Set up Apaleo MCP in VS Code Copilot

Prerequisites

VS Code 1.99 or later with GitHub Copilot extension
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and run "MCP: Add Server". Select HTTP (Streamable) as the server type. VS Code will create .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace.
2

Add the Apaleo MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into your .vscode/mcp.json. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
