Sample Available Keywords
This sample returns a list of available keywords, which can be used for a keyword hotel description request. These keywords can then be used for a Keyword Description request.
Note: There are two types of keywords for hotel description: vendor keywords, which relate to a specific hotel chain, and property keywords, which relate to a specific hotel location. Property keywords are supported in the Hotel Image Service because images are requested by property numbers. Hotel descriptions requests using vendor keywords can be made using the Hotel Description 5.0 transaction in the XML Select Web Service.
