Smartpoint Cloud

New opportunities and enhanced workflow

Use the Smartpoint Cloud SDK to build plug-ins that enhance capabilities and workflows for Travelport’s upcoming Smartpoint product. The new SDK features:

  • An API built using JavaScript, React and Redux that provides functionality via a plug-in methodology.

  • Easier distribution and management of plug-ins, including the ability to promote new functionality and service offerings to many agents instantly.

  • Streamlined software review process that gives plug-in owners more control over plug-in distribution than ever before

Discover Smartpoint Cloud SDK features

Extend Smartpoint Cloud

Build custom plug-ins to fulfill regional or agency-specific business needs, offer non-GDS ancillary services, integrate third-party applications, or integrate mid- and back-office systems. Plug-ins load directly into Smartpoint Cloud after they are activated by an agency.

Faster development

Use the API and helper library, the Sandbox environment, and the related guide during the development phase of your Smartpoint Cloud plug-in. Our updated software review process includes automation to help provide fast feedback, enabling you to go-to-market more quickly.

Distribute through Marketplace

Plug-ins will be showcased in Travelport Marketplace. Distribution and provisioning will be managed accordingly in a Smartpoint Cloud plug-in portal by the owner of the plug-in.

Guidance for Smartpoint plug-in development in preparation for Smartpoint Cloud

Separate business logic and UI from the plugin (ideally using React and/or Redux)

  • Create a small Smartpoint Desktop plug-in that uses a browser window to expose the business logic and UI

  • Create a small Smartpoint Cloud plug-in that exposes the same business logic and UI in Smartpoint Cloud
