Text Analysis blog | Aylien - How to Get Started with AYLIEN Text Analysis API
Introduction
Getting up and running with AYLIEN’s Text Analysis APIs couldn’t be easier. It’s a simple 3 part process from signing up to calling the API. This blog will take you through the complete process of creating an account, retrieving your API Key and Application ID, and making your first call to the API.
Part 1: Signing up for a free account
Navigate to http://aylien.com/getting-started/ and click on the “Subscribe For free” button. This will bring you to a sign up form which will ask for your details in order to setup your account and generate your credentials.
By signing up, you will get access to our basic plan which will allow you to make 1,000 API calls per day for free. Note: There is no credit card needed to get access to our basic plan. ;)

Part 3: Creating your first application
Our getting started guide is designed to get you up and running with the API and making calls as quickly and as easily as possible. Here you will find information on the API Documentation, Features, Links to a demo and some code snippets.We have included sample code snippets for you to use in the following languages.
- Java
- Node.js
- Python
- Go
- PHP
- C#
- Ruby
To start making calls, while you’re on the getting started page, scroll down to the “Calling the API” section. Choose which language you wish to use and take a copy of the code snippet. In this example, we are going to use Node.js.

Okay, 1,000 calls is not enough to build a biz on (not that you would) but it is more than enough to play with and still do some cool things. Imagine using this in your blogging, where you gather some cool text analysis info automagically from your post. Or spread out over time, analysis of all your posts. Or maybe a means to help you filter down your news stream. Or... or... or... There's a ton of stuff you can do with an API like this and being free'ish, you can play for, well, free.
