## Creating an App using the API

In addition to creating a Droplet from the twigs 1-Click App using the control panel, you can also use the [DigitalOcean API](https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api). As an example, to create a 4GB twigs Droplet in the SFO2 region, you can use the following `curl` command. You need to either save your [API access token](https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/create-personal-access-token/index.html.md) to an environment variable or substitute it in the command below.

```shell
curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
         -H 'Authorization: Bearer '$TOKEN'' -d \
        '{"name":"choose_a_name","region":"sfo2","size":"s-2vcpu-4gb","image":"threatwatch-twigs-20-04"}' \
        "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets"
```

## Getting Started After Deploying twigs

Launch the image and access the command line over ssh. You will be prompted to setup your twigs environment i.e. authenticate your ThreatWatch credentials. You can sign up to ThreatWatch by visiting [https://threatwatch.io](https://threatwatch.io). You may choose to set up your twigs environment later by running ’twigs login'
