# Guides

Use the guides section when you want practical implementation help instead of raw endpoint reference.

These pages are designed for:

- first-time integrations
- secure API key setup
- choosing the right authentication method
- following the recommended integration sequence

## Recommended path

1. [Quickstart](/quickstart)
2. [Generating API Keys](/generating-api-keys)
3. [Authentication Overview](/authentication/overview)
4. [Header Authorization](/authentication/header-authorization)
5. [URL Authorization](/authentication/url-authorization)

## When to use guides vs API reference

Use **Guides** when you want implementation direction.

Use **API Reference** when you need:

- exact endpoint paths
- parameter requirements
- success and error payloads
- code examples by language
