Vercel Hello World

Overview

Minimal working example demonstrating core Vercel functionality.

Prerequisites

  • Completed vercel-install-auth setup
  • Valid API credentials configured
  • Development environment ready

Instructions

Step 1: Create Entry File

Create a new file for your hello world example.

Step 2: Import and Initialize Client

import { VercelClient } from 'vercel';

const client = new VercelClient({
  apiKey: process.env.VERCEL_API_KEY,
});

Step 3: Make Your First API Call

async function main() {
  const projects = await vercel.projects.list(); console.log('Projects:', projects.map(p => p.name));
}

main().catch(console.error);

Output

  • Working code file with Vercel client initialization
  • Successful API response confirming connection
  • Console output showing:
Success! Your Vercel connection is working.

Error Handling

| Error | Cause | Solution | |-------|-------|----------| | Import Error | SDK not installed | Verify with npm list or pip show | | Auth Error | Invalid credentials | Check environment variable is set | | Timeout | Network issues | Increase timeout or check connectivity | | Rate Limit | Too many requests | Wait and retry with exponential backoff |

Examples

TypeScript Example

import { VercelClient } from 'vercel';

const client = new VercelClient({
  apiKey: process.env.VERCEL_API_KEY,
});

async function main() {
  const projects = await vercel.projects.list(); console.log('Projects:', projects.map(p => p.name));
}

main().catch(console.error);

Python Example

from None import VercelClient
