If you don't set environment variables for these values, you'll need to manually enter the correct values in the code samples throughout this tutorial. See Tools for testing the API for instructions. After you get your API and access keys in step 1, you can set the environment variables on your computer so you don't have to manually replace the variables in the sample code. Sample code - We use environment variables for your API and access keys in the cURL API request examples in this tutorial to make it easier for you to copy, paste, and run commands in your Terminal or Command Prompt window.For information about installing and using your REST API client, refer to their documentation.
