Quickstart

Get your first response from the Acme API in under five minutes. You will need an API key from your dashboard.

1. Make a request

Send a GET request to the messages endpoint with your key in the Authorization header:

curl https://api.acme.dev/v1/messages \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_your_key_here"

2. Read the response

A successful call returns a JSON object:

{
  "object": "list",
  "data": [
    { "id": "msg_01", "text": "Hello world" }
  ]
}

That's it — you've made your first call. Next, see Authentication.
