# Quickstart

> Get your API credentials and start making requests in minutes

Get up and running with the Creatify API in 3 simple steps:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Subscribe to a Plan">
    Choose an [API plan](/billing) that fits your needs. API access requires an active subscription (Starter, Pro, or Enterprise).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Get Your API Credentials">
    Log into your [Creatify account](https://app.creatify.ai), click your account name in the top-left corner, and select **API Dashboard**. Click **Show API Keys** to reveal your `X-API-ID` and `X-API-KEY`.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Make Your First API Call">
    Include your credentials in the request headers and start generating videos:

    ```bash theme={null}
    curl --request POST \
      --url https://api.creatify.ai/api/links/ \
      --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
      --header 'X-API-ID: your-api-id' \
      --header 'X-API-KEY: your-api-key' \
      --data '{
        "url": "https://example.com/product-page"
      }'
    ```
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  **Protect Your API Credentials** — Your `X-API-KEY` acts like a password. Keep it secret and never expose it in client-side code. If compromised, reset your key immediately from the API settings page.
</Warning>
