# Getting Started

  <Step title="Create Your API Key">
    Generate your first API key. Keep this key safe and secure. If you lose or leak your API key, you will need to revoke it and generate a new one.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Make Your First Request">
    Test your API key using our [sandbox](/sandbox). This lets you build, preview, and refine your requests safely before making live requests.
