# Tutorials Tutorials are for people who are new to Drum. Each one is a short, guided lesson that walks you through one complete activity so you can learn by doing. They take a single path and aim for a successful result. If you already know Drum and have a job to finish, use a [how-to guide](/how-to/) instead. ## API - [Make your first API request](/api/tutorials/make-your-first-api-request/): Create a token, then read your projects and one project's tasks through the Drum API. ## Webhooks - [Receive your first webhook](/webhooks/tutorials/receive-your-first-webhook/): Run a small receiver on your computer, subscribe it to project changes, verify Drum's signature and watch the events arrive. ## MCP server - [Connect Claude and log your first time entry](/mcp/tutorials/connect-claude-and-log-your-first-time-entry/): Connect Claude to Drum, ask it about your work, log a time entry, and check the entry in Drum. - [Make your first MCP call](/mcp/tutorials/make-your-first-mcp-call/): Talk to Drum's MCP server directly with curl. Start a session, list the tools, find a record and read a project.
