Creating a developer account and your first API key
Register at pteri.org, confirm your email, and generate a key from the dashboard.
To start building with PTERI's API:
- Register at pteri.org/register and confirm your email
- From your Developer Dashboard, generate an API key
- Set it as an environment variable, e.g.
PTERI_API_KEY, rather than hardcoding it anywhere that might get committed to source control
Every API request sends this key in the nodeUrlOrApiAccessKey header (no Bearer prefix). See getting started with the API for the first calls to make once you have a key.
The free Pteri Basic tier is enough to explore the API (3 requests/sec, 50 requests/month) — see plan tiers and limits when you're ready to scale up.
