### QuickStart

In this example, you will be auditing a wallet address:&#x20;

* **Axios** (JavaScript / Node.js)
* **Python** (Requests library)

Before you begin, you must have already installed [`npm`](https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm) or [`yarn`](https://classic.yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/install) on your local machine (for the Axios example) or Python and pip (for the Python example).

{% tab title="JavaScript (Axios)" %}
{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Setup project

Create and initialize a new project:

```bash
mkdir wallet-audit-quickstart
cd wallet-audit-quickstart
npm init --yes
```

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Install Axios

```bash
npm install axios
```

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Create file

Create a new file named `index.js`. This is where you will make your first call.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Set ES module type

Set the ES module `"type": "module"` in your `package.json`.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Add code

Add the following code to `index.js`:

{% code title="index.js" %}

```javascript
import axios from "axios";

const data = 
  {  "network": "ETH", "address": "0xa45f...a675"};

const config = {
  method: "post",
  url: "https://services.getblock.io/v1/wallet-audit/check",
  headers: {
    Authorization: "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY",
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  data: data,
};

axios(config)
  .then((response) => console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data, null, 2)))
  .catch((error) => console.log(error));

```

{% endcode %}

> Replace `<YOUR_API_KEY>` with your actual API Key from the GetBlock dashboard.
> {% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Run the script

```bash
node index.js
```

Expected output (example):

```json

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.getblock.io/crypto-address-audit/api-reference.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
