# Your First API Call

> Making your first API call

<Tip>This example is for a Node.js environment. If you'd like to see examples in your programming language, you can visit the page for the endpoint you wish to call.</Tip>

### Prerequisites

Ensure you have Axios or a similar library installed in your Node.js 18+ project.

```bash theme={null}
npm install axios
```

### Sample Code

The code below creates a location and then retrieves a list of locations where warehouse\_id = '1234'.

```javascript theme={null}

const axios = require('axios');

// Replace 'your_access_token_here' with your actual access token
const accessToken = 'your_access_token_here';

const config = {
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': `Bearer ${accessToken}`
  }
};

// Lets create a new location
const create_location_url = new URL('https://api.skulabs.com/location/create');

const postData = {
  warehouse_id: '1234',
  name: 'My New Location'
};

axios.post(create_location_url.toString(), postData, config)
.then(function (response) {
  console.log('Response:', response.data);
}).catch(function (error) {
  console.error('Error:', error);
});

// Now, let's get the list of locations.
const get_list_url = new URL('https://api.skulabs.com/location/get_list');

const selector = { warehouse_id: '1234' };

// Append the selector to the URL
get_list_url.searchParams.append('selector', JSON.stringify(selector));

axios.get(get_list_url.toString(), config)
.then(function (response) {
  console.log('Response:', response.data);
}).catch(function (error) {
  console.error('Error:', error);
});
```

### Notes

* Replace *your\_access\_token\_here* with your actual access token for authentication.
* This script handles both successful and error responses from the API.
