1/4

Step 1: Generate Your API Key

Create a RealAPI account on the Reality Defender Platform to generate your API key. You’ll need a key to authenticate all RealAPI requests.

Step 2: Add Detection to Your App

Install the RealAPI SDK for your preferred language (Python, TypeScript, Go, Rust, or Java) or connect directly through HTTPS requests.

Step 3: Upload Media Securely

Send image, audio, or video files for detection using a simple method call or API request. The SDK handles authentication, file upload, and polling automatically.

Step 4: Retrieve and Review Results

Receive structured JSON responses with manipulation probability scores and explainable indicators. You can view results programmatically or directly in the Reality Defender dashboard.
