Scenario

ReserveIt is an online marketplace, owned by ABB Corp., that lets people rent out homes or apartments to guests. Customers can browse the listings to request a rental. The application manages the reservation process, including any exchanges between the owner and prospective renters.

ReserveIt stakeholders want to give users the ability to create new Booking cases from the company website. Create a Pega Web Mashup and deploy the mashup on the ABB Corp. website.

Note: For security reasons, a challenge environment is not available. If you are interested in performing the challenge steps, you need a valid host site, and you can leverage an environment from a different challenge.
