The Chargebee Tax Adapter is used to add the tax to invoices, credit memos in Chargebee and to ingest live transaction data. The Chargebee support team will assist in provisioning your Chargebee account with the tax adapter. Once provisioned, setup instructions can be found in the Chargebee Help Center. As part of the setup, they will request your Anrok API Key. You can generate that API key using the steps below in Anrok:
