Getting Started with Nolano

Learn how to make your first forecast request and manage API keys.

​
Get Your API Key

To use the Nolano API, you need a valid API key. You can create and manage your API keys from the Nolano Dashboard.Your API key will look like:
ak_577aa2f186866ec0c75d1068bcff79cd3da4344b80aec1572e0fa07b364227d6
Test your API key with a simple request to ensure it’s working correctly:
    curl -X GET "https://api.nolano.ai/verify" \
      -H "Authorization: Bearer your_api_key_here" \
      -H "Content-Type: application/json"
Make sure to include your API key in the Authorization header. The API uses secure authentication to protect your data and ensure reliable access.

​
Make Your First Forecast

Once your API key is validated, you can send time series data for forecasting. Here’s an example request with sample time series data:
curl -X POST https://api.nolano.ai/forecast \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your_api_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-Model-Selector: forecast-model-1" \
  -d '{
    "series": [
      {
        "timestamps": ["2023-01-01T00:00:00", "2023-01-02T00:00:00", "2023-01-03T00:00:00", "2023-01-04T00:00:00", "2023-01-05T00:00:00"],
        "values": [10, 12, 15, 13, 16]
      }
    ],
    "forecast_horizon": 5,
    "data_frequency": "Daily",
    "forecast_frequency": "Daily",
    "confidence": 0.95
  }'
The API will respond with forecast predictions, confidence intervals, and metadata:
{
  "forecast_timestamps": ["2023-01-06T00:00:00", "2023-01-07T00:00:00", "2023-01-08T00:00:00", "2023-01-09T00:00:00", "2023-01-10T00:00:00"],
  "lower_bound": [14.5, 15.5, 16.5, 17.5, 18.5],
  "median": [15.0, 16.0, 17.0, 18.0, 19.0],
  "upper_bound": [15.5, 16.5, 17.5, 18.5, 19.5]
}
