			;How it works<br>
			When a client submits a booking, SimplyBook.me sends the booking details to your external URL as a JSON POST request. Your script inspects the data and returns a JSON response. If validation passes, the booking is saved. If it fails, the client sees an error message without the booking being confirmed.

[[File:External booking validator icon.png|left]] You can validate bookings through the use of an external script. The script can check variables from the booking, and only if conditions fulfilled, the booking is processed. Additionally the validation script can bring back information that can be injected into intake form variables. 

'''Please note!'''
