# Quickstart

Get up and running with the Akkio API using one of our convenient libraries.

### API Keys

As noted in the code samples below, you must get your API keys and copy them into your API code. Those can be found under the [team settings page](https://app.akkio.com/team-settings) at the bottom of the Akkio app.

### Test Code

{% tab title="Node.js" %}

#### Installation

`npm install akkio --save`

#### Usage

```bash
const akkio = require('akkio')('your API key');
#get your API key at https://app.akkio.com/team-settings


(async () => {
  #create a new dataset
  let newDataset = await akkio.createDataset('my new dataset');

  #populate it with some toy data
  let rows = [];
  for (var i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
okay     let x = Math.random();
    rows.push({
      'x': x,
      'value larger than 0.5': x > 0.5,
    });
  }
  await akkio.addRowsToDataset(newDataset.dataset_id, rows);

  # train a model
  let model = await akkio.createModel(newDataset.dataset_id, ['value larger than 0.5'], [], {
    duration: 1
  });

  ## field importance
  for (let field in model.field_importance) {
    console.log('field:', field, 'importance:', model.field_importance[field]);
  }

  # model stats
  for (let field of model.stats) {
    for (let outcome of field) {
      console.log(outcome);
    }
  }

  # use the trained model to make predictions
  let predictions = await akkio.makePrediction(model.model_id, [{
    'x': 0.25
  }, {
    'x': 0.75
  }], {
    explain: true
  });
  console.log(predictions);

})();
```

**Installation**

The akkio library is available on Python 3 and can be installed easily on your python instance. Run the following command or search your available packages for akkio (image also below.

`pip install akkio`

#### Usage

```python
import akkio
akkio.api_key = 'YOUR-API-KEY-HERE' 
# get your API key at https://app.akkio.com/team-settings

models = akkio.get_models()['models']
for model in models:
  print(model)

datasets = akkio.get_datasets()['datasets']
for dataset in datasets:
  print(dataset)

new_dataset = akkio.create_dataset('python api test')
print(new_dataset)

# create a toy dataset
import random
rows = []
for i in range(1000):
  rows.append({
    'x': random.random()
  })
  rows[-1]['y'] = rows[-1]['x'] > 0.5

akkio.add_rows_to_dataset(new_dataset['dataset_id'], rows)

new_model = akkio.create_model(new_dataset['dataset_id'], ['y'], [], {'duration': 1})
print(new_model)
prediction = akkio.make_prediction(new_model['model_id'], [{'x': 0.1}, {'x':0.7}], explain=True)
print(prediction)
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

Once you have installed the Akkio custom package and run the above Usage code you should be able to go to app.akkio.com and see an api test project as shown here.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.akkio.com/akkio-docs/rest-api/api-introduction/quickstart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
