# Base URLs

> Choose the correct Plato host for API requests, Console setup, and local testing.

Use the API host for API traffic and the Console host for setup.

## Production

Use this host for customer-facing API requests:

```text theme={null}
https://api.plato.ae
```

REST examples use the same host:

```bash theme={null}
curl "https://api.plato.ae/api/public/cms/products/list?apiKey=$PLATO_API_KEY"
```

## Console

Use Console to create API keys, roles, CMS databases, forms, menus, Connect360 channels, and other workspace records:

```text theme={null}
https://app.plato.ae
```

Console is not the preferred API host for integrations.

## Custom Or Private Deployments

If your Plato workspace is served from a private environment, replace `https://api.plato.ae` with the API host provided for that environment.

Keep the same paths:

```text theme={null}
https://your-api-host.example.com/api/public/cms/[modelId]/list
https://your-api-host.example.com/api/v1/aggregators/orders
```

## Local Development

The local API host is usually:

```text theme={null}
http://localhost:2024
```

The local Console host is usually:

```text theme={null}
http://localhost:3000
```

Use local hosts only when your team is running Plato locally.
