RapidAPI team, thanks for video. I have a question that I'm trying to solve some time ago but I don't find answer on internet about it. How can I sell my RapidAPI from my web. I mean.., I already have my API on RapidAPI but I would like to offer it from my Web and of course invite to user to generate his/her API Key from MY web. Is it possible? How can I achieve this?

[@RapidAPI]

Hi Cristhian, good question! There are APIs on RapidAPI that require API keys from an external source. I believe this would allow the use case you are explaining. Please reach out to [e-mail] and they can help you with this process, I will flag our team to keep an eye out for your message.

Hi there! If you are connecting to multiple APIs, RapidAPI can make it easier because you only need 1 API Key, 1 SKD, and 1 analytics dashboard for all of your API connections. Let us know if you have any questions!

25 / month quota on the free plan is a total joke. Make is 10x that, and it might be worth trying.

[@RapidAPI]

Hi Mark! Thanks for this feedback. To clarify, the free plan for the Spoonacular API is 50 requests per day, not per month. Other APIs on RapidAPI are completely free, or have free plans that include a larger volume of requests. The specific pricing plans and quota limits vary because they are determined by the API Provider, not by the RapidAPI team.

[@ElecPrizyy]

free to use but i have to provide my credit details... lol.

[@RapidAPI]

Hi Blake, apologies for any confusion! Certain APIs, like Spoonacular, require a credit card for free plans to cover any overage fees that results from exceeding the call limit. Other APIs on RapidAPI are completely free with no overage fees, so no credit card is required!

[@Lolapoozaa]
