The pieces

One source, one destination.

Ctrip Ctrip

Ctrip adds China-focused hotel inventory, Chinese-language guest reviews, and public advertised room pricing for portfolios that need stronger mainland coverage. On this page those prices feed Power BI, one row per date.

Power BI Power BI

Power BI talks to REST APIs natively through Power Query. No connector to install: the Web source plus one request header gets the JSON in, and scheduled refresh keeps it current. Here it becomes the front end for live Ctrip rates.

The call

One endpoint returns Ctrip rates.

The Ctrip Hotel Rooms and Lowest Price endpoint returns clean JSON for one hotel. Send your key in the X-API-Key header. See the endpoint docs for every parameter.

GET Ctrip Hotel Rooms and Lowest Price /v1/ctrip/hotel/rooms/{hotel_id} https://api.stayapi.com/v1/ctrip/hotel/rooms/18078321
