Making your first API call
Authentication
All API calls require your API key in the request header:
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
Or as a query parameter (check the specific API's documentation):
GET https://api.example.com/endpoint?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY
Using the AI Playground
The fastest way to get working code:
- Go to AI Playground
- Select your subscribed API
- Describe what you want to do in plain English
- Copy the generated code in your language of choice
Rate limits
Rate limits vary by API and subscription plan. Check the API's documentation for its specific limits. If you exceed a limit, you'll receive a 429 Too Many Requests response.
Debugging
- Check the API Status page for platform health
- Review the API's documentation for correct endpoint paths and parameters
- Use the Sandbox in your dashboard to test calls safely
