# Start a connect session

> Start a new session with Connect API.

Make a request to the Connect URL as shown in this example:

<CodeGroup>
  ```json Your request theme={"system"}
  curl --request POST \
    --url https://connect.flatpeak.com \
    --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --data '{
    "connect_token": "<connect_token>",
    "route": "session_start"
  }'
  ```
</CodeGroup>

The response will be one of the predefined pages listed under **Required pages** in the left-hand menu. Your application must be able to handle **all** of these pages.

<Tip>Make sure you subscribe to the `connect_session.complete` webhook event so your system is notified when a customer finishes the Connect flow.</Tip>
