Quickstart

This first-release quickstart is intentionally compact. The goal is to get an integration team from credentials to a successful request and then into the full API Reference and Playground.

​
1. Get platform credentials

Request a BLIPS platform token for the Public Test Environment. The current public contract uses Basic Auth in the form: 
clientId:clientSecret

​
2. Confirm the target server

The current public docs and Playground are bound to the confirmed Public Test Backend: 
PUBLIC_TEST_BASE_URL=https://public-test.blips.network
This host is internet-testable and intended for public API verification. It is not described here as a production-ready environment.

​
3. Make a first authenticated request

Use the platform configuration route as the first connectivity check: 
curl -u "$BLIPS_CLIENT_ID:$BLIPS_CLIENT_SECRET" \
  https://public-test.blips.network/config
This should return the current platform configuration for the authenticated integration.

​
4. Move into the API flow you need

After connectivity is confirmed, the usual first branches are:
  • token management
  • customer onboarding
  • external account binding
  • same-currency transfers
  • lookup, quote, and execute flows
  • transaction review and lifecycle readback

​
5. Use the Playground for request testing

Mintlify uses the OpenAPI document to generate request builders, auth inputs, and live Try It flows directly from the reference pages. In this pass, those requests are pointed at the Public Test Backend.
