With the upcoming widget redesign release, Triparound is introducing improvements to product presentation, category structure and widget flexibility.
Most redesign changes are backward-compatible, and legacy fields will continue to function during the transition period.
1. /activities Endpoint Changes
We have enhanced how products display highlights, itineraries, inclusions and exclusions.
New list fields
The following array-based fields are now available:
Field | Type | Description |
| Array of strings | Product highlights |
| Array of strings | Included items/services |
| Array of strings | Day-by-day or step-by-step itinerary |
| Array of strings | Excluded items/services (new field) |
These fields replace the previous plain-text fields for improved formatting and flexibility.
Legacy fields
The following legacy text fields remain available for backward compatibility:
highlightsinclusionsitinerary
Migration behavior
Existing legacy content will automatically migrate into the new list fields.
No manual migration work is required.
After release, all new and updated activities will only update the new list fields.
Recommended action
We strongly recommend updating your API integrations to use the new list fields as soon as possible, since future product updates will no longer modify the legacy text fields.
2. Categories (/activity-groups Endpoint)
Activity groups are being simplified into a flat structure.
What’s changing
Previously, activity groups could contain nested child groups through the children field.
This structure is now deprecated.
New structure
All activities from child groups are moved directly into the parent group's activity_list.
Example:
Parent group with 3 child groups
Each child contains 20 unique activities
Parent
activity_listnow contains 60 activities
Important notes
childrenstill exists temporarily for backward compatibility.New activity groups will no longer contain child groups.
Future implementations should ignore the
childrenfield entirely.
Recommended action
Update your integrations to rely on activity_list instead of children.
Please test category handling after release.
3. New Widget URL Parameters
The redesigned widget introduces additional flexibility for standalone mode and multi-product widgets. All existing widgets remain functional.
standaloneDefault:
false
Enables full-screen widget mode and removes the close (X) button.
Recommended for:
External URLs
Shared booking links
Standalone landing pages
Example
?standalone=true
Recommended action
We recommend adding standalone=true to all external widget URLs before release to ensure the best guest experience.
activity_id
Now supports multiple IDs.
Example
?activity_id=123,456
Creates a multi-product widget showing all selected activities.
No action required.
category_id
Now supports multiple IDs.
Example
?category_id=1,2
Displays products from all specified categories.
No action required.
4. Products & Transfers Tabs
The redesigned widget introduces two separate tabs:
Things to Do
Transfers
These controls only affect multi-product widgets.
Parameter | Default | Description |
|
| Shows “Things to Do” tab |
|
| Shows “Transfers” tab |
Recommended configurations
Set to false to hide the respective tabs.
Product-only widgets
?show_transfers=false
Transfer-only widgets
?show_products=false
Without these settings, empty tabs may appear and confuse guests.
Recommended action
Update existing multi-product widget URLs before release.
5. Additional Widget Customization Parameters
Other widget URL parameters to define the booking button text and background color and the product information language.
Booking button text
Customize the booking button label directly in the widget code.
Example
</> HTML
BOOK NOW
Booking button background color
Customize the booking button background color through the existing style attribute.
Example
background-color:#97843e;
Product information language
