Getting started

Start integrating with PolyAI APIs

Welcome to the PolyAI API documentation. This guide will help you get started with integrating the PolyAI API into your projects.

Regional API endpoints

PolyAI provides API endpoints in three regions to ensure optimal performance and compliance with regional regulations. Choose the appropriate base URL for your region:

Region	Base URL
US	https://api.us-1.platform.polyai.app
UK	https://api.uk-1.platform.polyai.app
EUW	https://api.euw-1.platform.polyai.app

Authentication

PolyAI supports API key authentication to ensure secure access to our API endpoints. Each account, and optionally each project, will be provisioned with a unique API key. Follow the steps below to authenticate your requests using the API key.

API Key authentication

To authenticate your API requests, include the API key in the request headers. Use the x-api-key header to pass your API key.

Request Header example

GET /polyai-endpoint HTTP/1.1
Host: api.{region}.platform.polyai.app
x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY

Securing your API key

Your API key is a sensitive credential and should be kept secure. Do not share it publicly or include it in client-side code. Always store your API key in a secure location, such as environment variables or a secrets management service. Contact the PolyAI team immediately if your API key is compromised.
