API Getting Started

Access Synthesize Bio's generative models directly from your code using our R package.

1. Get an API Key

Visit your API Keys page to create one. Click + Create API Key, then copy the key — it will only be shown once.

2. Install

install.packages("rsynthbio")

3. Authenticate

library(rsynthbio)

# Interactive — prompts for your key and stores it securely
set_synthesize_token(use_keyring = TRUE)

# In future sessions, load the stored token
load_synthesize_token_from_keyring()

4. Generate Your First Dataset

library(rsynthbio)

# Get an example query structure
query <- get_example_query(model_id = "gem-1-bulk")$example_query

# Generate the dataset
result <- predict_query(query, model_id = "gem-1-bulk")

# Access the results
metadata <- result$metadata
expression <- result$expression
