## Using Blockchain Deposit Account (BDA) Balances APIs

The BDA Balances API includes a Balances resource to get reporting on available coin balances.

### 1. Setup API access

- To get started with the BDA Balances API:
  - [Register](/docs/quick-start) as a developer and set up your project.
  - Once you’re set up, you can use the documentation and start making calls to the API immediately.

### 2. Setup bank accounts

To use the BDA Balances API, you will need bank accounts configured for API access with J.P. Morgan. Check with your implementation manager to confirm that the configuration has been properly completed.

## What's next?

Once you set up access, now you can interact with the BDA Balances API.

### Get BDA Balances

To get a list of current day balances for the cash reporting accounts configured with your API credentials follow the steps on the [Get account balances](/docs/liquidity-account-solutions/bda-balances/capabilities/balances/how-to/getting-account-balances) page.
