Quickstart

1

Create an account

Create or log into your Drylab account at app.drylab.bio.

2

Create an API key

Click on "API keys" on the sidebar, and then click on the "Generate new API key" button on the top left.

A pop up will appear and you will be prompted to name your API key. Naming your API keys could be useful in the future, if you use Drylab for multiple projects in parallel.

Click on "Create Key" when you're ready. Your API key will appear next.

Make sure to copy your API key and store it at a secure location — you will not be able to see it again after you close the pop up!

3

Use your key to access Drylab's features

You can now use Drylab via curl or the SDK. Here is a simple example you can test immediately:

EXAMPLE

curl https://api.drylab.bio/v1/works/search?source=medrxiv&q=preclinical \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer <ADD_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>"
