Quick Start

Let’s get right to it, shall we? Here’s a few REST calls that should get you started using the API with ease. You could copy and paste these calls into your browser, add your API key to them and then press ENTER! Better yet, you could use our API Console to make live API calls of your own. Once you’re comfortable with these calls, you should think about downloading our Javascript SDK. It will make your development life with the Edmunds API much easier :)

Example 1: Get a list of media items by tag Acura
