  <Step title="Get Authenticated">
    Our API uses API keys for authentication. Request your API key
    from our [support email: support@nox.energy](mailto:support@nox.energy) .

    <Note>
      More info in the [Authentication page](/api-docs/authentication).
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Call our API with your API Key">
    Use the API key in the header as follows:

    ```json theme={null}
    x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY
    ```

    Test if you have access with your API key by calling any of the [API endpoints](/api-docs) corresponding
    to your chosen package.
    Some example code in different programming languages is provided for each endpoint.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Go to Production 🚀">
    By default, you will have access to our Sandbox API for initial testing.
    When you are ready to transition to production, we would be pleased to schedule a
    meeting to discuss your specific integration requirements and work together
    to ensure a smooth deployment to our platform. Contact us at [support@nox.energy](mailto:support@nox.energy) .
