The outcome of the background checks needs to be synced with Cloudbeds PMS to ensure that the information is available to the property in real time.

The guest screening status (e.g. in progress, failed…) and the outcome should be synced back to Cloudbeds in one of the following ways: (*)
- Option 1: You can post the status and result as a guest note with postGuestNote.
- Option 2: You can create dedicated custom fields for the guest screening with postCustomField (optional) and populate these fields with putGuest when required.
If you collect any additional guest details (e.g. via a web form) as part of the screening process, it is mandatory to sync these additional data back to Cloudbeds via putGuest. (*)
