Are you referring to a Smart-1 Cloud trial account or other management type?

Have you had the trainings necessary yet ? Did you try management API calls and not succeed ? And why do you want to hit something, i hope not too hard ?

When you say "trial account" what exactly are you referring to?
If it's Smart-1 Cloud, please refer to Settings > General for the necessary information to connect via the Management API, which should be available.
If this is a locally installed management server, the API should be available assuming you have a valid license (can be a trial/eval).

If anything trial licenses may even contain licenses to features you may not want to pay for.

So as generic remark. If it is licensed then it will work. Which includes API calls. Just be sure it is set up to do API calls.
