## Quickstart: Data API

The **Data API** lets you ingest data into SafetyKit for processing and analysis. This is perfect for syncing your users, products, transactions, or any entity you want SafetyKit to understand.

- [ cURL](#tab-panel-0)
- [ TypeScript](#tab-panel-1)
- [ Python](#tab-panel-2)

Terminal window

```
curl -X POST https://api.safetykit.com/v1/data/users \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "data": [
      {
        "id": "user_12345",
        "email": "alice@example.com",
        "username": "alice_wonderland",
        "profile_image": "https://example.com/alice.jpg",
        "bio": "Just a curious person exploring the world!",
        "created_at": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z"
      }
    ]
  }'
```

```
import Safetykit from "safetykit";


// Initialize the client with your API key
const client = new Safetykit({
  apiKey: "sk_your_api_key",
});


// Ingest users into the "users" namespace
const response = await client.data.ingest("users", {
  data: [
    {
      id: "user_12345",
      email: "alice@example.com",
      username: "alice_wonderland",
      profile_image: "https://example.com/alice.jpg",
      bio: "Just a curious person exploring the world!",
      created_at: "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z",
    },
  ],
});


console.log(`✓ Data accepted: ${response.requestId}`);
```

```
from safetykit import Safetykit


# Initialize the client with your API key
client = Safetykit(api_key="sk_your_api_key")


# Ingest users into the "users" namespace
response = client.data.ingest("users", {
    "data": [
        {
            "id": "user_12345",
            "email": "alice@example.com",
            "username": "alice_wonderland",
            "profile_image": "https://example.com/alice.jpg",
            "bio": "Just a curious person exploring the world!",
            "created_at": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z"
        }
    ]
})


print(f"✓ Data accepted: {response.request_id}")
```

**What happens next?** SafetyKit processes your data asynchronously. You can set up [webhooks](/webhooks/introduction/index.md) to get notified when processing completes. See [Copy-and-Paste Quickstart](/using-data-api/copy-and-paste-quickstart/index.md) for more starter code.

## Install the SDK

As an alternative to using the API directly, we offer Typescript and Python SDKs to handle authentication, retries, and type safety out of the box.

- [ TypeScript](#tab-panel-3)
- [ Python](#tab-panel-4)

Terminal window

```
npm install safetykit
```

Terminal window

```
pip install safetykit
```
