Do you mean to say how do I use this stuff? You can find the documentation [here](https://api.stackexchange.com/) or there is a "Getting started" section on the right of this page. For example if you want to see a list of users you could send a web request to `https://api.stackexchange.com/2.3/users` and parse then JSON response. Now if you want to find out details about a particular user, let's say your details `https://stackoverflow.com/users/566610/jared`. Do you see the number `566610` that's the ID. Every question, answer, comment, or user has an ID. So, here you need to send your web request to `https://api.stackexchange.com/2.3/users/566610`. **Your JSON response:** ```json { "total": 1, "page": 1, "pagesize": 30, "users": [ { "user_id": 566610, "user_type": "registered", "creation_date": 1294388578, "display_name": "Jared", "reputation": 28, "email_hash": "e51f7fdd3c09fc9246278abf89f1881e", "age": 19, "last_access_date": 1294538702, "website_url": "http://wphax.com", "location": "Wisconsin, US", "about_me": "<p>Freelance WordPress Expert</p>\n", "question_count": 2, "answer_count": 2, "view_count": 1, "up_vote_count": 0, "down_vote_count": 0, "association_id": "d0249d62-3c97-4b50-9df1-8c7f377846f6", "user_questions_url": "/users/566610/questions", "user_answers_url": "/users/566610/answers", "user_favorites_url": "/users/566610/favorites", "user_tags_url": "/users/566610/tags", "user_badges_url": "/users/566610/badges", "user_timeline_url": "/users/566610/timeline", "user_mentioned_url": "/users/566610/mentioned", "user_comments_url": "/users/566610/comments", "user_reputation_url": "/users/566610/reputation", "badge_counts": { "gold": 0, "silver": 0, "bronze": 4 } } ] } ``` Take one more example. Let's assume we want to find out list of questions for this you should send your web request to `https://api.stackexchange.com/2.3/questions`. And if you want questions related to a particular tag for example WordPress. Your URL will be `https://api.stackexchange.com/2.3/questions?tagged=wordpress`. And once you have finished with your application, you can register an [API key](https://stackapps.com/apps/register). Read [How API Keys Work](https://stackapps.com/questions/67) for more details. ----- **Edit :** You can use [StackAPI](https://stackapps.com/questions/595) which is an interactive way to explore the API of the Stack family of sites. **Edit 1 :** You can find list of libraries [here](https://stackapps.com/questions/288).
