It can take ~1-30 minute. - Authenticate writes guest profile and verification link values back to the *same* OwnerRez booking via Booking Custom Fields . Authenticate also applies a tag on the same OwnerRez booking. - When the guest completes verification, Authenticate updates more Booking Custom Fields and tags on OwnerRez Booking. #### **Pre-read OwnerRez Docs**: - [System Messages Overview](https://www.ownerrez.com/support/articles/system-messages-overview) - [Messaging Templates Overview](https://www.ownerrez.com/support/articles/messaging-templates-overview) - [Trigger Overview](https://www.ownerrez.com/support/articles/triggers-overview) - [Template/Trigger Library](https://www.ownerrez.com/support/articles/template-trigger-library-overview) --- #### **Authenticate Custom Fields to be used in OwnerRez Templates** - Link fields (BXAUTHENTICATE1, BXAUTHENTICATE2) appear ~10–15 min post-booking - Result fields (BXAUTHENTICATE6–BXAUTHENTICATE12) appear after guest completes verification - Field codes like {BXAUTHENTICATE1} can be inserted into any OwnerRez message template body - These are substituted with actual values when the message is sent. - Important: Fields must be populated before the trigger fires, otherwise the field will be blank | **Field Code** | **Custom Field Name** | **Set At** | **Possible Values** | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | {BXAUTHENTICATE1} | Authenticate\_verification\_link | ~1-30 min after booking | Verification URL | | {BXAUTHENTICATE2} | Authenticate\_guest\_profile | ~1-30 min after booking | Guest profile URL | | {BXAUTHENTICATE7} | Authenticate\_identity\_proof\_valid | After verification complete | Yes / No | | {BXAUTHENTICATE11} | Authenticate\_us\_only\_seven\_year\_criminal\_record\_found | After verification complete | Yes / No | | {BXAUTHENTICATE12} | Authenticate\_global\_watchlist\_record\_found | After verification complete | Yes / No | | {BXAUTHENTICATE4} (Deprecated) | Authenticate\_verification\_passed | After verification complete | Yes / No | #### **Authenticate Tags to be used in OwnerRez Triggers** **Our Booking Tags** (created and applied automatically by Authenticate) that might be useful for configuring automated emails - - `verificationLinkReady` - `identityProofValid` - `identityProofInvalid` - `US_authDBCheckPassed` - `US_authDBCheckFailed` - `criminalRecordFound` - `criminalRecordClear` #### **How to use the Custom fields in a message template?** Create a [**Booking Email Template**](https://app.ownerrez.com/settings/templates/email) (or Booking SMS Template) and insert your custom fields as field codes. OwnerRez field codes are “specific words, wrapped with curly braces” that get replaced with real booking data when the message sends.![image (55)](https://info.authenticate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image%20(55).png?width=670&height=403&name=image%20(55).png)   Example: “Verification request” email template body - Subject: `Action required: Verify ID for booking {BID}` - Body (example): ``` Hi {CFIRST},Thanks for booking {PDISPNAME} for {BARR} to {BDEP}.To complete your booking, please verify your identity using this link: {BXAUTHENTICATE1}.This step only takes a few minutes.-{MYFIRST} ``` #### **How to attach templates to triggers (automation)?** OwnerRez automations are typically `Templates + Triggers.` You select a trigger Type/Event and then pick a message template as the Action. Immediate triggers can send as soon as a booking event happens, scheduled triggers can send at a specific time relative to arrival/departure, etc. ![image (56)](https://info.authenticate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image%20(56).png?width=670&height=265&name=image%20(56).png)   - [Before you begin](https://info.authenticate.com/before-you-begin?hsLang=en#main-content) - [About Authenticate®](https://info.authenticate.com/before-you-begin?hsLang=en#about-authenticate) - [Pricing: Pay-as-you-go](https://info.authenticate.com/before-you-begin?hsLang=en#pricing-pay-as-you-go) - [Solutions by Authenticate®](https://info.authenticate.com/before-you-begin?hsLang=en#solutions-by-authenticate) - [Account Activation](https://info.authenticate.com/before-you-begin?hsLang=en#account-activation) - [How to verify a user?](https://info.authenticate.com/before-you-begin?hsLang=en#how-to-verify-a-user) - [Data Coverage & Compliance](https://info.authenticate.com/before-you-begin?hsLang=en#data-coverage-compliance) - [Getting started](https://info.authenticate.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) - [General](https://info.authenticate.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#general) - [Medallion™](https://info.authenticate.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#medallion) - [No-Code Solutions](https://info.authenticate.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#no-code-solutions) - [API Solutions](https://info.authenticate.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#api-solutions) - [Products](https://info.authenticate.com/products?hsLang=en#main-content) - [User Insights](https://info.authenticate.com/products?hsLang=en#user-insights) - [Identity Verification](https://info.authenticate.com/products?hsLang=en#identity-verification) - [Criminal and Civil Records](https://info.authenticate.com/products?hsLang=en#criminal-and-civil-records) - [Background Checks](https://info.authenticate.com/products?hsLang=en#background-checks) - [Sandbox](https://info.authenticate.com/sandbox?hsLang=en) - [Pricing](https://info.authenticate.com/pricing?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Pricing Model](https://info.authenticate.com/pricing?hsLang=en#pricing-model) - [Integrations](https://info.authenticate.com/integrations?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Guesty](https://info.authenticate.com/integrations?hsLang=en#guesty) - [Hostaway](https://info.authenticate.com/integrations?hsLang=en#hostaway) - [Hostfully](https://info.authenticate.com/integrations?hsLang=en#hostfully) - [Lodgify](https://info.authenticate.com/integrations?hsLang=en#lodgify) - [OwnerRez](https://info.authenticate.com/integrations?hsLang=en#ownerrez) - [SuiteOp](https://info.authenticate.com/integrations?hsLang=en#suiteop) - [Manage Your PMS Integration](https://info.authenticate.com/integrations?hsLang=en#manage-your-pms-integration) - [FAQs](https://info.authenticate.com/faqs?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Introduction](https://info.authenticate.com/faqs?hsLang=en#introduction) - [Verification and Background Checks](https://info.authenticate.com/faqs?hsLang=en#verification-and-background-checks) - [Step-by-Step Hub](https://info.authenticate.com/faqs?hsLang=en#step-by-step-hub) - [Admin Profile](https://info.authenticate.com/faqs?hsLang=en#admin-profile) - [Compliance](https://info.authenticate.com/faqs?hsLang=en#compliance) - [Integrations](https://info.authenticate.com/faqs?hsLang=en#integrations) - [Pricing](https://info.authenticate.com/faqs?hsLang=en#pricing) - [Troubleshooting](https://info.authenticate.com/faqs?hsLang=en#troubleshooting) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://info.authenticate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/authenticate-logo-rgb-svg%20(3).png?width=195&height=24&name=authenticate-logo-rgb-svg%20(3).png "Chill listening crop-3")](https://authenticate.com/) 730 Arizona Avenue, Suite 230, Santa Monica, CA 90401 [mailto:support@authenticate.com](mailto:support@authenticate.com) Copyright © 2026, Authenticate
