Chattanooga places electronic orders with an API SID and API Token that you can generate yourself once your account is approved for API access.

Chattanooga Shooting Supplies (CSSI) uses an API SID and an API Token for electronic orders. You can usually generate both yourself.

How to get your API SID and Token

  1. Sign in to your Chattanooga account.
  2. Go to developers.chattanoogashooting.com/api and generate or retrieve your API SID and API Token.
  3. If the API section is not available to you yet, ask your Chattanooga sales rep to approve your account for API access first, then try again.

Where it goes in Trinity

  1. In your admin, open Shipping & FFL > Distributors.
  2. Press Configure next to Chattanooga Shooting Supplies. The Chattanooga (CSSI) Settings page opens.
  3. Enter your Dealer Account Number, API SID (Account Identifier) and API Token. Choose a Default Shipping Method if you have a preference.
  4. Press Save Settings, then Test API Connection.

Good to know

Chattanooga adds a minimum order fee to small drop ships and will not drop ship hazmat, so Trinity sends those lines ship to store. See Chattanooga (CSSI): orders under $50 and hazmat ship to store.
