# Backendless API

## Backendless Rest API

For the first step we will go to backendless to acquire our API key.

```
https://backendless.com/
```

![](/files/-MJA5_dj2qFpl9pavE3P)

{% hint style="info" %}
 If you don't have an account with backendless, you can signup for free. 
{% endhint %}

Once you've registered, and confirmed email, backendless will request that you create a new app. 

![](/files/-MJA7wbXXewVSD5r_jbO)

{% hint style="info" %}
You can give your application any name. I recommend choosing a blank app, since the frontend will be created using appgyver. 
{% endhint %}

After you click create, you should see this dashboard.

Click on the database icon

Select Users

Select Rest Console

![](/files/-MJAC6NZK4Ug_7_FnzSu)

We can now select **show full URL,** and we can copy, paste, and save url in a txt document for later use. You should remove the path **/data** from your url, so that is looks similar to the URL below:

```
https://api.backendless.com/application-id/REST-api-key/users
```

{% hint style="info" %}
Alternatively, you can copy and paste your application ID, and rest API key into the above URL. 
{% endhint %}

We now have everything we need from backendless. At this point, we can setup appgyver data configurator.
