Guides → Airnode → Deploying an AirnodeGenerating the Airnode Config using ChainAPI
ChainAPI is a platform that enables you to integrate and deploy the open-source Airnode with its step-by-step integration and deployment tools. It helps streamline the Airnode integration process for API providers.
Using ChainAPI, API providers can configure and deploy an Airnode which links their API data to several blockchains.
ChainAPI can connect almost any API, whether open or authenticated, to Airnode. Airnode then queries your API operations to be consumed by EVM on-chain dApps, by using the request/response protocol.
To get started, go to ChainAPI and login using MetaMask.
