Thynk is a Salesforce-native hospitality commercial platform for hotel and venue sales, catering, events and MICE.

## Full answer

Thynk connects to Mews through secure API credentials and access tokens, managed in Thynk's integration settings.
Administrators enter the Mews API credentials once in the integration settings.
Access tokens are renewed to keep the connection active.
Thynk's integration monitoring shows the status of every exchange with Mews.
Credentials are stored securely on the Salesforce platform, which Thynk is built on.
Keeping credentials current ensures uninterrupted two-way synchronisation of profiles, blocks, reservations, availability and rates.
