Help with Eventbrite API

Hi So i'm pretty new to using API in general but I would like to be able to use their features on my wordpress site,

http://developer.eventbrite.com/doc/widgets/#calendar

This is the sort of thing I would like to be able to implement to start with,

I do have my API key as well as my application key but frankly I have no idea where to put them!

So another side question is, does all API work the same, ie import, functions?

Thanks

Hey Jack,

Working with API's really varies across the board. Generally, an API key is just used to identify who you are and the requests you are making. If you're having issues with Eventbrite's documentation, I highly recommend getting in touch with their support team for help. Most development teams will have either an IRC, hipchat room, google group, twitter account (not the main business one, but API specific) or some sort of contact email.

Good luck!
