## Before you start

> In this example project tutorial, we will learn how to create an order and calculate shipping costs.

#### Pre-requisites

To get started, we will need a few things.

#### Authentication: Get your komship API key

`x-api-key` is an authentication parameter, which gives you access to Komship APIs. You can get your own API Key from [our team komerce](https://api.whatsapp.com/send/?phone=6281328014170\&text\&type=phone_number\&app_absent=0). Just by contacting you can use it for free.

We will use the language`golang` to create the API, but you can use other language for integration, such as `javascript, typescript, php, kotlin, swift` or others.
