# Revenue Management System (RMS)

Push optimised rates and restrictions to SiteMinder in real time, with optional access to reservation data to inform pricing decisions.

Your RMS sends rate and restriction updates to SiteMinder, which distributes them across all connected booking channels. Optionally, your RMS can also receive reservation data from SiteMinder to feed pricing models.

> **API used:**
>
> [**pmsXchange**](/pmsxchange-api/pmsxchange-api.md) - rate and restriction updates.\
> [**SMX**](/smx-api/smx-api.md) - reservation data access (optional).

{% hint style="success" %}
**RMS integrations require a pilot property before going live.**

A single property is connected to production to validate that everything works correctly in a live environment before scaling to additional properties.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://developer.siteminder.com/get-started/integration-types/rms.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
