    ---


    ## Quick start


    **1. Get your API key** — register in one request:

    ```

    POST /v1/auth/register

    {"email": "you@example.com", "name": "Your Name"}

    ```

    Copy the `api_key` from the response.


    **2. Authenticate** — add your key to every request as a header:

    ```

    X-API-Key: ar_live_xxxxxxxxxxxx

    ```


    **3. Run the discovery endpoint** — returns all available slugs, example calls, and your account limits:

    ```

    GET /v1/discovery

    ```


    **4. Make your first call:**

    ```

    GET /v1/prices/netflix?country=AU

    GET /v1/trades/electrician/prices?state=NSW&country=AU

    GET /v1/pbs/metformin

    GET /v1/rental/VIC/Richmond

    ```
