Working with Reservation
Policies 9
You use the reservation service to perform a variety of functions, such as creating and updating
reservation policies.
While many functions are stand-alone, some functions rely on the output of others. For example, to delete
a reservation, you must first obtain the ID of the reservation to delete.
Each example for this use case lists a curl command with respective JSON response, plus input and
output parameters. The same set of prerequisites applies to each example.
