1.Detect new or updated booking record
Integrate Zapier Tables and table automation tools to start on qualifying booking records and route reservation processing.
Update reservation status and record arrivals to sheet
Automatically watch new or updated booking records across Zapier Tables and Google Sheets. Automatically create and update a formatted sheet row, evaluate acceptance, and write back confirmed or rejected statuses so you can reduce manual reservation entry and prevent missed arrivals.
How this automation updates arrival records
When new or updated booking records arrive, delays can cause incorrect arrival handling. This automation filters and formats booking data, creates a sheet row, evaluates acceptance, and updates reservation status—so your team can act fast and accurately.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.
Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO
Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.
Rishi Shah, CEO and Co-Founder
We don't just want to patch holes; we want to build scalable, future-proof systems. Zapier is helping us do that.
Allen Lai, Head of Customer Experience
We've been able to scale our operations while staying lean. Zapier lets us do more without needing more people.
