# Quick Start Guide

> Get started with Compass API. Create your API key, install the SDKs, and make your first DeFi request in minutes.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Get your free Compass API key ">
    Get your [free API key](https://www.compasslabs.ai/login) and get instant access to every endpoint.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install the Compass SDK">
    Check the [API reference](https://docs.compasslabs.ai/v1/api-reference/aave-v3/token-prices) for all available endpoints. Use familiar TypeScript / Python wrappers, or hit pure REST.

    * [Python SDK](https://pypi.org/project/compass_api_sdk/)

    ```bash theme={"system"}
    pip install compass_api_sdk
    ```

    * [TypeScript SDK ](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@compass-labs/api-sdk)

    ```bash theme={"system"}
    npm install @compass-labs/api-sdk
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Make your first call ">
    Here is an example to [get the price of a token in USD](https://docs.compasslabs.ai/v1/api-reference/token/token-price).

    <CodeGroup>
      ```Python Python (SDK) theme={"system"}
      from compass_api_sdk import CompassAPI, models

      compass = CompassAPI(api_key_auth="<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>")

      result = compass.token.token_price(
          chain=models.V1TokenPriceChain.ARBITRUM, token=models.TokenEnum.WBTC
      )
      print(result)
      ```

      ```Typescript Typescript (SDK) theme={"system"}
      import { CompassApiSDK } from "@compass-labs/api-sdk";

      const compassApiSDK = new CompassApiSDK({
        apiKeyAuth: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
      });

      async function run() {
        const result = await compassApiSDK.token.price({
          chain: "arbitrum:mainnet",
          token: "WBTC",
        });

        // Handle the result
        console.log(result);
      }

      run();
      ```

      ```cURL cURL theme={"system"}
      curl --request GET \
        --url 'https://api.compasslabs.ai/v1/token/price?chain=ethereum&token=AAVE' \
        --header 'x-api-key: <api-key>'
      ```
