# Quickstart

> Get started with the API

<Warning>
  Be Careful: The tools in our API Reference make real API calls that affect your production data.
</Warning>

<Warning>
  API tokens provide unlimited access to your account. Do not share them, and do not use them in client-side code. They are intended for server-side use only.
</Warning>

## Get your API token and Platform ID

1. Navigate to your Reseller account
2. Go to the **Developers** page in your Reseller account at [admin.embedads.com](https://admin.embedads.com)
3. Click the **Create Token** button
4. Copy the API token and keep it secure: **it provides unlimited access to your account**
5. Note your Platform ID (this numerical string uniquely identifies your Reseller account)

## Make your first API call

Let's make a call to get a list of your advertisers.

1. Go to the API reference page for [GET /platforms/platformID/advertisers](/api-reference/admin/platforms/advertisers/list)
2. Within **Authorization**, set `Authorization` to `Bearer {your API token}` (without the curly braces), using the API token you copied earlier
3. Within **Path**, set `platformID` to the one you made a note of earlier
4. Click the **Send** button to try out the call
