- 01
Create an account

- 02
Generate an API key
Create a scoped key in dashboard settings. Keep test and live keys separate from day one.
- 03

Call the API reference, list your first orders or vehicles, then wire up webhooks for live updates.
Client libraries
Official SDKs for every stack.
- Node.js
npm install @silica/sdk- Python
pip install silica-sdk- Go
go get github.com/silica/sdk-go- Ruby
gem install silica-sdk
Core concepts
The building blocks of the API.
- Orders
- The core unit of work. An order moves through inventory, dispatch, and delivery, updating in real time.
- Inventory
- One stock count shared across storefront, POS, and fulfillment, so nothing oversells.
- Vehicles & telemetry
- Live location, diagnostics, and driver behavior data, streamed per vehicle.
- Webhooks & events
- Subscribe to order, inventory, and vehicle events instead of polling.
