   • Your API Key will be created and be visible to you.
2. Call the Issue method of the API to create your first boarding pass.
   • Select Application Developers > API Tester > Issue Pass.
   • Paste in your new API key in the X-apiKey text box.
   • The Request text box is pre-populated. You can change some of the field values, for example firstname/lastname.
   • If entering a mobile number, ensure that you enter the country code before the number, for example, for a UK country code, the number will start with 44.
   • Click on the Issue Boarding Pass button which will call the API at the endpoint specified with your X-apiKey and request.
   • The API response will be shown in the Response text area.
