# Reputation management

Reputation management systems typically require reservation information, customer profile information, and the ability to update customer profiles.

## Retrieving reservations

After a customer has checked out from a reservation, Reputation management systems often send a survey through to a customer's email. The integration partner can request all checked-out reservations for a given period using [Get all reservations](/connector-api/operations/reservations.md#get-all-reservations-ver-2023-06-06) with [reservation state](/connector-api/operations/reservations.md#reservation-state) set to `Processed`. For optimal API usage, ensure cascading time periods with short time frames, e.g. request every 4 hours for the previous 4 hour period. To receive notifications that a reservation has been checked-out, you should use [General Webhooks](/connector-api/events/wh-general.md) (`ServiceOrderUpdated` event) or [WebSockets](/connector-api/events/websockets.md) (`Reservation` event).

## Updating the customer profile

When a Reputation management system links customer feedback to a customer, use [Update customer](/connector-api/operations/customers.md#update-customer) to update the customer profile in Mews. The [customer classification](/connector-api/operations/customers.md#customer-classification) `PreviousComplaint` should be used when negative feedback has been received. Further to this, keywords from the complaint and a URL to the survey or Tripadvisor post can be added to the customer `Notes` field.
