Complete Ruby Example

helix-ai-summarization.rb

require "httparty"
require "json"

url = "https://ai-summarization-by-helix-api.p.rapidapi.com/summarize"
headers = {
  "Content-Type" => "application/json",
  "X-RapidAPI-Key" => "YOUR_API_KEY",
  "X-RapidAPI-Host" => "ai-summarization-by-helix-api.p.rapidapi.com"
}
body = {"text": "Helix-API provides 20 production-ready APIs for developers. It covers AI, data utilities, and automation.", "mode": "abstractive"}

response = HTTParty.post(url, headers: headers, body: body.to_json)
data = JSON.parse(response.body)

puts "Status: #{data['status']}"
puts "Result: #{data['data']}"

Response Format

All Helix-API endpoints return a consistent JSON envelope:

{
  "status": "ok",
  "data": { ... },
  "meta": {
    "request_id": "req_abc123",
    "latency_ms": 42
  }
}

On errors, status becomes "error" and a message field explains what went wrong.

Error Handling

Status	Meaning	Action
`200`	Success	Parse the response body normally
`400`	Bad request	Check your request parameters
`401`	Unauthorized	Verify your X-RapidAPI-Key header
`429`	Rate limited	Wait and retry with exponential backoff
`500`	Server error	Retry after a short delay
