How to Create an API Key on RapidAPI

To use the YouTube to MP3 conversion functionality, you'll need to obtain an API key from RapidAPI. Follow these three simple steps to create your API key:

Step 1: Sign Up and Log In to RapidAPI

Go to RapidAPI's website and sign up for a free account if you don't have one. If you already have an account, log in.

Step 2: Find and Subscribe to the API

Search for the YouTube MP3 by ytjar API in the RapidAPI marketplace. Once you've found it, click on it to view its details.

Subscribe to the API by selecting the free or paid plan that suits your needs.

Step 3: Copy Your API Key

1. After subscribing, navigate to the "Apps" tab of the API.
2. Select "default application" on the sidebar and click Authorization.
3. Here, you will find your API key in the "X-RapidAPI-Key" field. Copy this key, as you will need to add it to your project.

Configuring the API Key in Your Project

Once you have your API key, you'll need to set it up in your project:

1. Create a .env file in the root of your project directory.
2. Add the following line to your .env file, replacing YOUR_API_KEY with the actual key you copied:

VITE_RAPID_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY

3. Save the .env file. Your project is now configured to use the RapidAPI service.
