Chamber Nation API Connection List

Details on Chamber Nation's Application Programming Interface (API)

What is an API?

From Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API


In computing, an application programming interface (API) is an interface that defines interactions between multiple software applications or mixed hardware-software intermediaries.[1] It defines the kinds of calls or requests that can be made, how to make them, the data formats that should be used, the conventions to follow, etc. It can also provide extension mechanisms so that users can extend existing functionality in various ways and to varying degrees.[2] An API can be entirely custom, specific to a component, or designed based on an industry-standard to ensure interoperability. Through information hiding, APIs enable modular programming, allowing users to use the interface independently of the implementation.


What Can the Chamber Nation API Do?

 

The Chamber Nation API was developed so that our customers can extend their membership management system into something really powerful. For instance, to connect with multiple mobile applications published by various companies, powering a completely separate visitor center website, generating amazing directories that you can run on Amazon Web Services (AWS), connecting to a CRM like ChamberLIFE, etc.


If you have an idea on how you would like to use your Chamber Nation API then submit a ticket to engineering explaining your idea and we can help determine how that will work.
