## Steps to get started

<Steps>

  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick RAG model from Marketplace">
    You can browse through different RAG models available in the [Dappier Marketplace](https://marketplace.dappier.com). You can select the RAG model that best fits your use case. Once selected get the RAG model id from the request endpoint. RAG model id starts with dm\_.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Make API call">
    The Curl request to access the RAG model is as follows:

    <CodeGroup>
      ```python Python theme={null}
      # Python code example
      import requests

      def fetch_dappier_data(query):
      api_key = "<YOUR_DAPPIER_API_KEY>" # Replace with your actual Dappier API key
      endpoint = "https://api.dappier.com/app/aimodel/am_01j06ytn18ejftedz6dyhz2b15"
      headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {api_key}", "Content-Type": "application/json"}
      body = {"query": query}
      response = requests.post(endpoint, headers=headers, json=body)
      return response.json()

      # Example usage
      results = fetch_dappier_data("Plan me an itinerary for a 3 day trip to Puerto Rico")
      print(results)
      ```

      ```bash cURL theme={null}
          curl -L 'https://api.dappier.com/app/aimodel/am_01j06ytn18ejftedz6dyhz2b15'
          -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
          -H 'Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_DAPPIER_API_KEY>'
              -d "{
                  \"query\": \"Plan me an itinerary for a 3 day trip to Puerto Rico\"
              }"
      ```
    </CodeGroup>
