# How-to guides

> Step-by-step guides for real data jobs on 17 platforms: the endpoints in order, copy-paste requests and what the worked example costs.

Canonical page: https://okdata.online/guides/

Each guide is one job done end to end: the endpoints in the order you call them, the parameters that matter, a request you can paste, and the bill for the worked example. Prices come from the live catalog; a failed call is not charged.
