## EU Pricing

For EU subscription plans and pricing, go to [Pricing & Billing](./ade-pricing#eu-pricing).

## Differences When Using the EU

Using {ade} in the EU works the same as the default US deployment, with only a few key differences outlined in this article:

* [Create an account](#create-an-account-in-the-eu): Use the EU URL
* [Get your API key](#get-your-api-key-for-the-eu): Use the EU URL
* [Call the API directly](#call-the-api-directly-in-the-eu): Use the EU endpoint
* [Use the library](#use-the-library-with-the-eu): Set the EU endpoint as an environment variable

### Create an Account in the EU

Create an account and access the Playground in the EU here: [https://va.eu-west-1.landing.ai/home](https://va.eu-west-1.landing.ai/home).

### Get Your API Key for the EU

To get your API key for the EU, go to [https://va.eu-west-1.landing.ai/settings/api-key](https://va.eu-west-1.landing.ai/settings/api-key).

Use this API key when using the library or calling the API directly in the EU.

API keys are deployment-specific. An API key created in the US will not work for the EU, and vice versa.

### Call the API Directly in the EU

To ensure your API calls are processed in the EU, replace the default base URL with the EU base URL:

**US:** `https://api.va.landing.ai`\
**EU:** `https://api.va.eu-west-1.landing.ai`

For example:

* US: `https://api.va.landing.ai/v1/ade/parse`
* EU: `https://api.va.eu-west-1.landing.ai/v1/ade/parse`

### Use the Library with the EU

To connect the library to the EU deployment, set the `environment` parameter to `eu` when initializing the client.

<CodeGroup>
  ```python Python theme={null}
  from landingai_ade import LandingAIADE

  client = LandingAIADE(
      environment="eu",
  )
  ```

  ```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
  import LandingAIADE from "landingai-ade";

  const client = new LandingAIADE({
    environment: "eu"
  });
  ```
