Quick Start Guide

This quick start guide walks you through making your first API call, authenticating requests, and understanding response formats.

Step 1: Get Your API Key

Step 2: Install the SDK

We provide official SDKs for JavaScript, Python, Java, Go, Ruby, and PHP. Install via your package manager:

npm install @connectbase/sdk\npip install connectbase-sdk

Step 3: Make Your First Request

Use the following code to test your API key:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \\n https://api.connectbase.com/v2/health

Step 4: Explore Endpoints

Browse our API Reference for the full list of available endpoints, or try the interactive API explorer.
