Getting Started
Learn how to integrate with BizKitHub APIs in just a few minutes. This guide will walk you through authentication, making your first API call, and handling responses.
1. Get Your API Key
Before you can start making API calls, you'll need to obtain an API key from your BizKitHub dashboard. Learn more about API keys →
📝 Note
Keep your API key secure and never expose it in client-side code. Always use it on your server or in secure environments.
2. Make Your First API Call
Here's how to make a simple GET request to retrieve users:
curl -X GET "https://api.bizkithub.com/v1/users" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"
JavaScript Example
const response = await fetch('https://api.bizkithub.com/v1/users', {
method: 'GET',
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
});
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
Python Example
import requests
headers = {
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
response = requests.get('https://api.bizkithub.com/v1/users', headers=headers)
data = response.json()
print(data)
3. Handle the Response
All API responses follow a consistent format:
{
"data": [
{
"id": "user_123",
"email": "john@example.com",
"name": "John Doe",
"created_at": "2025-01-01T00:00:00Z"
}
],
"pagination": {
"page": 1,
"limit": 20,
"total": 100,
"pages": 5
}
}
4. Error Handling
Always check for errors in your API responses:
const response = await fetch('https://api.bizkithub.com/v1/users', {
method: 'GET',
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
});
if (!response.ok) {
const error = await response.json();
console.error('API Error:', error.message);
return;
}
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
