API getting started

Get an API key. Make your first request.

Access text, speech, image, and video with one API key. Follow these four steps to get started.

Four steps to your first request

Already have an account or API key? Pick up where you left off.

  1. Create an account or log in

    After login, you will arrive at the API Keys page. If you already have an account, simply sign in.

  2. Create and save your API key

    Create a key on the API Keys page and give it a name you can recognize. Copy and store it securely right away: the full key is shown only once.

  3. Choose a model

    Find the model ID in the catalog. Models are enabled by default; if you disabled one, re-enable it in the console. Text, image, and video models use the AI models entry; speech models have a separate entry. Check your balance before calling.

  4. Make your first request

    Open the API docs and choose an example for your product. Add your API key and model ID, then run it. A response completes your first integration.

API keys are free to create. Model calls are billed by usage. Check your console for available balance and any promotional credits.

Request failed? Check your API key, model enablement, and account balance first.
