TripLoft connects to Project Expedition's catalog of tours and activities. Search a tour by name and its details import straight into an Activity component, so you're not retyping a supplier's website.
The search matches on keywords, not dates or availability, so the simplest approach is to pick your tour on Project Expedition's site first, then search that name in TripLoft.
Tour content comes directly from the Project Expedition API. The tours you find, and the details that import, are whatever Project Expedition provides for that tour.
What imports from a tour
When you add a tour, TripLoft pulls in whatever the tour provides through Project Expedition, which can include:
The tour name and description
The photo gallery
The duration and location
Exactly what populates depends on the tour: some provide more detail than others. You can edit or fill in anything after import.
Step 1: Add an Activity to the day you want
From the Add Items panel, drag an Activity component into the day section where the tour should appear.
Step 2: Search for the tour
Open the Activity to reach the Edit Activity screen. On the General Info tab, in the Activity Info section, leave the Add manually toggle off to use the search.
Tour Operator is already set to Project Expedition
In Tour Name, type keywords for the tour you found on Project Expedition's site
Click Search for tour. Matching tours appear in a list with their name and type, and a count of how many were found.
Step 3: Review the tour and add it
Click a tour in the results to open its detail view: photos, description, duration, type, and location. Read More opens the tour's page on Project Expedition in a new tab if you want to check availability first. Save the tour to populate the Activity component.
It comes in at $0.00 with all trip travelers assigned, and every detail stays editable.
Enter an activity manually instead
If the activity isn't on Project Expedition, or you'd rather build it by hand, turn on the Add manually toggle in Activity Info. The search is replaced with fields you fill in yourself: Tour/Activity Name, Activity Type, Tour Operator (search your suppliers), Location, Start Date, Start Time and time zone, Duration, and a Description. You can add your own photos on the Media tab, where you can also set a primary image.
Good to know
Imported detail varies by tour. TripLoft brings in whatever Project Expedition provides. Edit or add to it afterward.
Pricing is not imported. Every activity comes in at $0.00. Set pricing on the Pricing & Booking tab. See Configure Pricing for Proposal Components.
All trip travelers are assigned. Same as a component you add manually.
