Getting Started with the Developer Portal

admin

Prerequisites

Welcome to Aelix Developer Portal

The Aelix Developer Portal gives you everything you need to discover, integrate, and manage APIs at scale. This guide walks you through the essential first steps.

Step 1 — Create Your Account

Navigate to aelix.digitalapi.ai and click Sign Up. Provide your work email and a secure password. You will receive a verification email within a few minutes.

Once verified, log in and you will land on the Dashboard. This is your command centre for managing API keys, monitoring usage, and exploring available APIs.

Step 2 — Explore the API Catalogue

Click APIs in the top navigation to browse the full catalogue. You can filter by:

  • Category — Banking, Payments, Identity, Data
  • Protocol — REST, GraphQL, AsyncAPI
  • Stability — Stable, Beta, Deprecated

Each API listing shows its current version, authentication method, and a quick-start code snippet.

Step 3 — Generate an API Key

Go to Dashboard → API Keys → New Key. Give the key a descriptive name (e.g. dev-sandbox-2025) and select the APIs you want it to access. Save the key securely — it will only be shown once.

Step 4 — Try the Interactive Console

Open any API and click the Try It tab. Enter your API key and fill in the required parameters. The console sends a real request to the sandbox environment and displays the full response, including headers and timing.

Step 5 — Read the Quickstart Docs

Each API has a dedicated Quickstart page under Documentation. These pages include language-specific code samples for cURL, JavaScript, Python, Java, and Go.
