# Endaoment API

Use the Endaoment API to authenticate donors, open and fund DAFs, search nonprofits, and submit grants. Everything is REST over HTTPS.

<Note>
  Rate limits are generous while you're building and testing. If you hit something that feels tight, reach out to [engineering@endaoment.org](mailto:engineering@endaoment.org) — we're happy to help.
