# What are API Products?

### 🎯 What is an API Product?

An API Product is a **complete package** that includes everything you need to use or sell an API on API.market.

{% hint style="info" %}
💡 **Think of it like this:** An API Product is like a product listing in an online store. It includes the API itself (what it does) and the pricing plans (how much it costs).
{% endhint %}

#### API Products are comprised of two parts:

**1. API Source** - The actual API specification and endpoints\
→ [Learn more about API Source](/seller-docs/importing-an-api-source.md)

**2. Pricing Plans** - The subscription tiers and pricing options\
→ [Learn more about Pricing Plans](/seller-docs/what-is-a-pricing-plan.md)

### 🛒 How to Subscribe to API Products

To use API products you first need to subscribe to any of the API . Here's how you can do it : \

APIs are the building blocks that allow software applications to communicate and share functions in a secure, scalable environment. \
\

In order to use the API Playground, a place to test & play with any API you first need to subscribe to any plan.  We recommend trying FREE plan as a starter. You can always upgrade the plan later.&#x20;

#### API Playground :&#x20;

API Playground is a Place for anyone to test out any API they have subscribed to. \
You need to be logged in and require api-key to test it out.&#x20;

\
\
**Step 3 :** Fill in all the required input fields in the API Playground to test the API.\
For this example, we are using the [**Object Remover API** ](https://api.market/store/magicapi/object-remover-v2) and passing the image URL and mask URL in the request body as shown below.

Fill out the Required fields in the API Playground before testing. The fields will have some or all details filled as an example. \
\
**Step 4: Click Run API once done.**
