What does each Expedia action accept?
Each answer below pairs one callable action with its real inputs. Parameter meanings and allowed values are action-specific; a familiar name does not carry the same meaning across every platform.
Official sources are linked only to clarify the platform term beside them. They do not imply platform authorization or endorsement, and they do not add official-site features to the EveryInfra API contract.

What do the Expedia search parameters mean?
Compare Expedia hotels for a destination in keyword, with neighborhood, star class, guest rating, nightly and total price, discount and VIP Access status. Prices are as listed, not a quote for a specific stay, and availability is not confirmed.

When a full URL is provided for car_rental, its embedded parameters override standalone date inputs. It does not query flight availability.Expedia: Hotel Classifications in Search Results — Expedia distinguishes hotel star classifications from separate national ratings used in some regions, and a classification does not guarantee every listed amenity. In search results, `star_rating` is not an average guest score or a universal hardware certification. · Checked

What do the Expedia profile parameters mean?
Read an Expedia hotel's property page from its url: star class, guest rating, category ratings, property type, address, coordinates, languages and review summary. Pass a single hotel page, not a search results page.
urlRequired- Accepts a single hotel page URL from Expedia or compatible Hotels.com links to fetch property profiles or reviews. It does not accept search result pages. Car rental queries must pass full search URLs via the keyword parameter instead.Expedia: Hotel Classifications on Property Pages — Expedia distinguishes hotel star classifications from separate national ratings used in some regions, and a classification does not guarantee every listed amenity. On a property record, `star_rating` is not an average guest score or a universal hardware certification. · Checked
What do the Expedia reviews parameters mean?
Collect guest reviews for one Expedia hotel, each with rating, post date, stay date, trip type, travel party and whether the stay was verified. Narrow by date with since and set the order with sort; complete coverage of every review is not guaranteed.

reviews_fromOptional- Acts as a compatibility input for the review start date, accepting YYYY-MM-DD. When since is provided simultaneously, since takes precedence. It does not filter hotel stay dates.

This action only exposes rating and eligibility terms, without guaranteeing that returned values share a unified scale or reflect fully completed stays. · Checked

What do the Expedia car_rental parameters mean?
Get Expedia car rental quotes for a pick-up location, with vehicle category, rental company, price, rating and pick-up and drop-off details. Without dates, pick-up defaults to 30 days out for two days; nothing is booked, and taxes or extras are not locked in.
Full API reference: parameters, code samples, response example and health →keywordRequired- Specifies the hotel destination for search actions or the pick-up location or full Expedia carsearch URL for car_rental. When a full URL is provided for car_rental, its embedded parameters override standalone date inputs. It does not query flight availability.
check_inOptional- Serves as a compatibility alias for car_rental pick-up dates and is evaluated only when pick_up_date is omitted. It does not filter hotel check-in dates on this endpoint.
check_outOptional- Serves as a compatibility alias for car_rental drop-off dates and is evaluated only when drop_off_date is omitted. It does not filter hotel check-out dates on this endpoint.
drop_off_dateOptional- Specifies the car rental drop-off date using YYYY-MM-DD format. If a pick-up date is provided without a drop-off date, the system defaults to the same day, so an explicit later date should be provided. Omitting the pick-up date causes default date pairs to override a standalone drop-off date.
pick_up_dateOptional- Specifies the car rental pick-up date using YYYY-MM-DD format and takes precedence over check_in. If omitted, default timing is set to 30 days from today with a 2-day duration. Rental queries fix pick-up and drop-off times at 10:30 AM, so arbitrary time slot availability cannot be assumed.

Expedia API questions
What can I retrieve with the Expedia API?
Set platform to expedia. The current catalog lists search, property details, reviews, and car rental quotes. These action names identify different Expedia objects or views; they are not interchangeable search modes.
Which input starts a Expedia `search` request?
Specifies the hotel destination for search actions or the pick-up location or full Expedia carsearch URL for car_rental. When a full URL is provided for car_rental, its embedded parameters override standalone date inputs. It does not query flight availability. Send it as keyword inside params.
Which fields can Expedia `search` return?
Its declared schema includes hotel_id, name, neighborhood, and region. A declared field can still be absent from an individual record, and every other action has its own field list.
Does every Expedia action return immediately?
Actions labeled asynchronous return a job ID you poll. Every other action can also run asynchronously: add "mode": "async" to the request body to receive a job ID immediately, useful for slow tasks or large limits. The current catalog contains sync delivery.
