# Getting Started with the Jitra API

> Start an API integration by defining the data requirement, access scope, client ownership, and quota before issuing a credential.

Start an API integration by defining the data requirement, access scope, client ownership, and quota before issuing a credential.

## What to Check

1. Identify the approved use case and responsible owner.
2. Confirm the Organization and Objects in scope.
3. Create a short-lived API Key for initial testing.
4. Use the current API Reference for endpoints and schemas.
5. Monitor Integration usage and handle errors without exposing secrets.

## Current Jitra Workflow

The Jitra UI manages API Keys but does not display endpoint documentation on the API Keys page.

## Reviewing the Result

Confirm the saved or displayed information matches the intended Object, users, period, and Organization workflow.

## If the Issue Continues

Review required fields, access permissions, available data, and Organization limits. Contact an Organization administrator or Jitra support when the required control is unavailable.
