Awesome, no time to waste, full speed ahead.

The best place to start is by downloading our Postman Collection. It covers all our available endpoints for all our API products. Once downloaded you only need to update the variables with your own client id and secret and you are good to go.

By default our postman collection points to our sandbox environment, which is connected to different testnets and is the perfect environment to start playing around. To learn more about our environments and the different blockchain networks please have a look at Environments & networks.
