Pre-approve an inquiry (Airbnb, VRBO, or through a PMS)

POST/v1/conversations/:id/pre-approval

Note

Airbnb (listings connected directly) and VRBO. The guest may book the dates they asked about at the listed price. An inquiry relayed by a connected PMS is pre-approved in that PMS and the response carries `pms`: Guesty pre-approves Airbnb inquiries (blockInstantBooking: true is refused — Guesty has no such switch); Hostaway has no pre-approval API (422 pms_write_unsupported). capabilities.pms.reservations.preapprove on GET /v1/connect/{provider} says so beforehand. Guides: /docs/channels/airbnb/inquiries-and-requests, /docs/pms-writes#requests
