# API Overview

<Note type="warning">
  The Cloud API is in beta. The interface may change between versions. Report issues on [GitHub](https://github.com/Phala-Network/phala-cloud/issues) or in our [Telegram group](https://t.me/+nbhjx1ADG9EyYmI9).
</Note>

The Cloud API exposes the same backend used by the Phala Cloud dashboard. You can use it to create, manage, and monitor CVMs programmatically.

The full interactive API reference is available in the sidebar — browse endpoints by category (Apps, CVMs, Attestations, etc.) to see request parameters, response schemas, and try requests directly.

For working examples (creating and managing CVMs), see the [Cloud API examples](https://github.com/Phala-Network/phala-cloud).

## Error Handling

API errors return structured error codes in the format `ERR-{MODULE}-{CODE}`. See the [Error Codes Reference](/phala-cloud/references/error-codes) for a complete list of error codes and their meanings.
