# Make Your First Request

> Learn how to get started with the Moralis Data API.

### Your first request

Let's make your first request using the [Wallet API](/data-api/evm/wallet/overview).\
In this example, we'll retrieve **token balances** for a wallet on Ethereum - including **formatted balances, USD values, prices, and metadata** - with a single API call using [Token Balances](/data-api/evm/wallet/token-balances).

### What we'll fetch

* All ERC-20 and native token balances for a wallet
* Enriched data such as token metadata, prices, and USD values
* Normalized output you can use directly in apps or dashboards

### Make the request

```bash cURL theme={null}
curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://deep-index.moralis.io/api/v2.2/wallets/0xcB1C1FdE09f811B294172696404e88E658659905/tokens?chain=eth' \
  --header 'X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY'
```

<Info>
  Replace `YOUR_API_KEY` with the API key from your [Moralis dashboard](/data-api/get-your-api-key).
</Info>

### Response

The API returns a JSON object containing the wallet's token balances. Each entry includes balances, prices, USD values, and security metadata.
