# Try the API in your browser

Send real requests from the API reference without writing any code.

Every page in the [API reference](/reference) can send a real request.

1. Open an endpoint, for example [Search clients](/reference/clients-search).
2. Paste your API key in the **Credentials** box.
3. Change the parameters if you want to.
4. Click **Try It!**

The response appears right below, with its status code.

> [!WARNING]
> These are real requests. Creating, updating or deleting a record changes your live Estactics data.

## Is my key safe here?

Your key stays in the current browser tab and is cleared when you close it. It is sent only to the Estactics API, and it is never included in the code samples, which show `YOUR_API_KEY` instead.

## Code samples

Pick a language above the request to see the same call in Shell, Node, Ruby, PHP, Python and more. The sample updates as you change the parameters.
