Cleo and Vrbo: export your calendar and every checkout gets its clean

Vrbo gives you a URL with each property’s calendar, and with that URL Upbridge reads the property’s calendar.

Cleo, your AI operations assistant, sends every clean to your team on WhatsApp.

How to export your property’s calendar from Vrbo

  1. Log in to your Vrbo Owner Dashboard and go to the listing you want to connect.
  2. In the menu, select Calendar. In Settings, go to the Availability tab.
  3. Under “Calendar sync”, select “Connect calendars”, then “Export calendar”.
  4. Select “Copy URL” and send it to David on WhatsApp. We connect it to that property in Upbridge.

The steps for the Vrbo Owner app are in the questions below.

What Cleo does with the calendar

  3. 003Inventory goes down

    When the clean is closed, the products you set up come off that property’s inventory.

Limits

What the connection doesn’t do yet

  • Vrbo decides how often its calendar URL refreshes.
  • Upbridge reads the calendar and writes nothing to Vrbo, so your listing, prices and guest messages stay there.
  • Each property has its own URL, so they connect one by one.
Other integrations

If the property is on another platform too, connect that calendar to the same property.

Vrbo and Upbridge

Can I get the URL from the Vrbo app?

Yes. In the Vrbo Owner app, open the property, tap Calendar and then the ⚙ settings icon. On the Availability tab, under “Calendar sync”, tap “Connect calendars” and then “Copy link”.

Does Upbridge change anything in Vrbo?

No. Upbridge reads the calendar from the URL and writes nothing back to Vrbo.

How much does it cost?
