## Start in three steps

1. Get a key: [open the console](https://okdata.online/console/). A new key comes with $0.10 to try, no card.
2. Connect your AI with this sentence (swap in your key), or call the API yourself:

   > Set up okdata for me by following https://okdata.online/agents.md. Here is my okdata API key: okd_…. Keep it safe and use it for all okdata calls.

3. Make the first call (WeChat Channels video search). Items arrive in data.items, the next page in page.next_cursor, the charge in meta.billing.amount.

```bash
curl -G "https://api.okdata.online/v1/wechat_channels/videos/search" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OKDATA_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode 'query=露营装备推荐'
```
