# Eon API Overview

The Eon API offers access to your resources and data in Eon, exposed as REST API methods.
You can use the API to automate tasks, integrate Eon with other systems, and build custom applications.

API methods are secured and require authentication.
You authenticate API calls using scoped client credentials, which you can create in the Eon console and use to generate an access key.
Your access key is valid for a limited time and must be refreshed periodically.
To get started, see [Authentication][authentication-article].

While you should refer to the reference documentation for detailed information about each API method, see the following articles general usage information:

* [Authentication][authentication-article]
* [Filtering][filtering-article]
* [Pagination][pagination-article]
* [Errors and Response Codes][errors-article]
