# API Introduction

> Introduction to using the Bison API directly

<Warning>
  For ease of integration (especially for frontends), we currently recommend using the [TypeScript SDK](/sdks/typescript/quickstart).
  If calling the API directly, you may find it useful to reference the TS SDK's
  [BisonClient source code](https://github.com/bison-markets/sdk-ts/blob/master/src/client.ts)
  since many Bison flows are multi-step & will require you to bring your own RPC client, EIP-712 signers, etc.
  with an Ethereum library like `viem` or `web3.py`.
</Warning>

## Overview

The Bison API is a RESTful API that provides a simple interface for interacting with prediction markets via Bison.
You can look at the [OpenAPI specification](https://api.bison.markets/openapi) to import the complete reference
and/or generate a client for your preferred language.
