Quickstart
This guide will get you all set up and ready to use Gigadrive Network APIs. We'll cover how to get started using one of our API clients and how to make your first API request. We'll also look at where to go next to find all the information you need to take full advantage of our powerful API products.
Before you can make requests to the Protocol API, you will need to grab your API key from your dashboard. You find it under Settings » API Keys. To find out more about API Keys, read the Authentication guide.
Choose your client
Before making your first API request, you need to pick which API client you will use. In addition to good ol' cURL HTTP requests, Gigadrive Network offers clients for JavaScript, Python, and PHP. In the following example, you can see how to install each client.
# cURL is most likely already installed on your machine
curl --version
Making your first API request
After picking your preferred client, you are ready to make your first call to Gigadrive Network APIs. Below, you can see how to send a GET request to the Web Reputation API to check the reputational status of a website.
curl -G https://api.gigadrive.network/web-reputation/domain \
-H "Authorization: Bearer {apiKey}" \
-d domain=gigadrive.network
