Getting Started

This guide will walk you through making your first successful API call in under 5 minutes.

Step 1: Get Your API Key

Before you can use the API, you need an API key.

  1. Log in to your People Cloud client account.
  2. Navigate to the Settings > API Keys page in the portal.
  3. Generate a new key and copy it to a secure location. This key must be included in the Authorization header of every request.

Step 2: Make Your First API Call

Use the following curl command in your terminal to confirm your key is working. Replace YOUR_API_KEY_HERE with the key you just generated.

curl --request GET \
  --url [https://sandbox-api.peoplecloudpro.com/v1/auth](https://sandbox-api.peoplecloudpro.com/v1/auth) \
  --header 'Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE'
