Publish to Property Finder, Bayut and Dubizzle

Property Finder, Bayut and Dubizzle all take their copy of a listing from the same Raptor Neo record. Switch on a portal and the listing is sent there. Switch it off and the listing is withdrawn. You never type a listing out twice.

Walkthrough video to followAbout a minute and a half on screen, creating an Active listing, switching two portals on and checking the status each one reports.

Check first

• Raptor Neo is linked to your agency’s portal accounts. See connecting your portal accounts.
• The listing carries what the portals want: a price, a size, bedrooms, photos and a description.

Publish a new listing

1. Go to Listings and click Create Listing.
2. Fill in Basic Info: the price and built-up area, the property with its tower, floor and unit, the permit number and the agent it’s assigned to.
3. Change Listing Status to Active. Drafts never reach the portals; only Active listings do.
4. Click Save & Next.
5. On Listing Details, give the listing its Listing Name and description, upload the photos under Photos & Files, and click Save & Next again.
6. The last screen, Publish Listing, has the Commission Rate to confirm and the Deposit to fill in.
7. Under Distribution Channels, switch on every portal the listing should appear on.
8. Click Publish.

Screenshot to followA listing's Distribution Channels section, where Property Finder and Bayut are on and each shows its own status.

Required fields are only checked once the status is Active, which means a Draft saves with gaps. Leave a listing in Draft while you’re still working on it, and make it Active when it’s ready to be seen.

Send out a listing that already exists

1. Open the listing and check that Listing Status reads Active.
2. Switch on the portals you want under Distribution Channels. Only those turned on for your agency are listed.

How each change travels:

• Property Finder receives it the moment you save.
• Bayut and Dubizzle read a single shared feed, which Raptor Neo rebuilds every hour.

Either way, the photos, the price and every other detail come from the one listing record.

If a listing lacks a field that a portal insists on, Raptor Neo holds it back from that portal and records a sync failure. After Bayut or Dubizzle has collected the feed, Raptor Neo has no view of whether the portal later turns a listing down. If a listing doesn’t appear there, look on the portal itself.

One title for all three

Portals don’t get separate titles. Whatever Listing Name and description sit on Listing Details are what every switched-on portal shows. Edit them once on the listing and all the portals pick up the new wording. Keep the name to 70 characters or fewer.

See what’s live

Open the listing. Each portal under Distribution Channels shows its own status. Across all listings, the Channels column on the Listings page shows which portals carry each one.

The listing’s activity log keeps a line for each change, published to or unpublished from a named portal. To list everything the agency has on one portal, filter Listings by Listing Portals.

Withdraw a listing from one portal

In Distribution Channels, switch that portal off. Its status changes to Unpublished and the listing is withdrawn from it. The listing itself stays in Raptor Neo, and stays live on every other portal that’s still switched on.
