# Introduction

> Getting started with the Redo v3 GraphQL API

## Welcome to the Redo v3 API

The v3 API is a **GraphQL** API for managing your product catalog, inventory,
purchasing, suppliers, and webhooks. Unlike the
[v2 REST API](/docs/api-reference/introduction), you send a single `POST`
request describing exactly the data you want, and receive exactly that shape
back.

**Data endpoint:** `https://api.getredo.com/v3/account/{accountId}/graphql`
**Schema endpoint:** `https://api.getredo.com/v3/graphql-schema`

All operations go to the single data endpoint over `POST`. The schema endpoint
is read-only [introspection](#introspection) and requires no authentication.

## Quick start

```bash theme={null}
curl -X POST "https://api.getredo.com/v3/account/YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID/graphql" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_SECRET" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "query": "{ products(first: 10) { nodes { id title sku } pageInfo { hasNextPage endCursor } } }"
  }'
```

## Introspection

The schema is self-describing. Point any GraphQL client (GraphiQL, Apollo
Sandbox, Insomnia, `graphql-codegen`) at the **schema endpoint** to explore
types, fields, and docs:

```
https://api.getredo.com/v3/graphql-schema
```

This endpoint resolves introspection queries (`__schema`, `__type`) only — no
account data is reachable there, so no token is needed.

  <Step title="Send operations">
    Learn how [queries and mutations](/docs/api-reference/v3/queries-mutations)
    are structured.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Page through lists">
    Understand [cursor-based pagination](/docs/api-reference/v3/pagination) on
    connections.
