    "description": "PandaDoc API spans a broad range of functionality to help you build incredible documents automation experiences inside your product.\n\nPandaDoc API is organized around REST. Our API has predictable resource-oriented URLs and uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and verbs.\n\n## Getting started\n\nYou can start testing PandaDoc API with a sandbox key on our [Enterprise](https://www.pandadoc.com/pricing/) plan, either active or in trial.\n\nGenerate your [sandbox key](https://developers.pandadoc.com/reference/sandbox-key) on the Developer Dashboard with predefined [rate limits](https://developers.pandadoc.com/reference/limits). Or contact our solutions expert if you work with high-transaction volumes.\n\n## Guides\n\nIf you’re just getting started with PandaDoc, you may want to jump straight into one of our [getting started guides](https://developers.pandadoc.com/docs/getting-started) for the feature you’re most interested in, whether that’s:\n\n- [Create from template](https://developers.pandadoc.com/docs/create-send-document),\n- [Upload and send a local PDF](https://developers.pandadoc.com/docs/upload-and-send-a-local-pdf),\n- or [Listening for changes in document status](https://developers.pandadoc.com/docs/listen-document-status-changes).\n\nWe also recommend you to discover our dynamic content generation on a fly: [Create from a template with content placeholder](https://developers.pandadoc.com/docs/create-with-content-placeholders-from-template).\n",
