## Installation
### 1. Install with `npm`
This library is distributed on `npm`.
```shell
npm install @kintone/rest-api-client
```
You can then use `require` or `import` to import the library.
```javascript
// CommonJS
const { KintoneRestAPIClient } = require("@kintone/rest-api-client");
// ES modules
import { KintoneRestAPIClient } from "@kintone/rest-api-client";
```
### 2. Load UMD files from CDN (for browser environment)
> [!IMPORTANT]
> To avoid cascading failures from the CDN, we recommend using the npm package and bundling it to your plugin/customization.
You can also load Universal Module Definition (UMD) files directly from Cybozu CDN:
- https://cybozu.dev/ja/kintone/sdk/library/cybozu-cdn/#kintone-rest-api-client
Regarding restrictions and availability, please check Cybozu CDN Policy:
- https://cybozu.dev/ja/policy/cybozu-cdn-policy/
After loading the UMD file, you can use `KintoneRestAPIClient` in your environment.
In Kintone customization, please add the UMD file URL in the "JavaScript and CSS Customization" setting of your app.

Here is a sample code that retrieves app records.
```js
const client = new KintoneRestAPIClient({
baseUrl: "https://example.cybozu.com",
// Use password authentication
auth: {
username: process.env.KINTONE_USERNAME,
password: process.env.KINTONE_PASSWORD,
},
// Use API token authentication
// auth: { apiToken: process.env.KINTONE_API_TOKEN }
// Use OAuth token authentication
// auth: { oAuthToken: process.env.KINTONE_OAUTH_TOKEN }
// Use session authentication if `auth` is omitted (in browser only)
});
client.record
.getRecords({ app: "1" })
.then((resp) => {
console.log(resp.records);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.log(err);
