# Digital River API

## **Start integrating**

Our [Getting started](https://docs.digitalriver.com/digital-river-api/quick-start-guide) guide walks you through the basics of making API requests, setting up a Digital River Dashboard account, and getting your API keys.

To better understand some of Digital River's core services and how to use them, we recommend you review the [Using our services](https://docs.digitalriver.com/digital-river-api/using-our-services) page.
