Call the application

Prerequisites

• You have obtained an API Key and set the API key as an environment variable.

• you have obtained the application ID.

• You have installed the SDK of the latest version.

Use API or SDK

Replace YOUR_APP_ID with your application ID to ensure the code functions correctly.
