# Venue

> GET /venues/me - the identity of the venue your API key belongs to

## Overview

`GET /venues/me` returns the identity, legal information and integration-relevant configuration of the venue your API key is attached to. It is the natural **first call of any integration**: verify who you are talking to, pick up the timezone, currency and language, and detect whether the venue belongs to a group.

```bash theme={null}
curl 'https://api.bookingshake.io/api/venues/me' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'
```

```json theme={null}

## Notes

* **Legal fields** (`legal_name`, `company_registration_id`, `vat_number`...) use the same names as the `seller` block of [invoice payloads](/api-reference/invoices): the venue you see here is the seller of the invoices you will read.
* `venues_group_id` is `null` for standalone venues. One API key gives access to **one venue**; for a group, each venue has its own key.
* `prefix` is the prefix used in quote and invoice numbering.
* `country` is returned verbatim as configured; `country_code` is the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 resolution when possible.
* Timestamps are Unix **milliseconds**, empty fields are an explicit `null`.

## Rate limits

60 requests/minute per API key. See [Rate Limiting](/api-reference/rate-limiting).
