How to authenticate with an API key

Each API class in abstract-python requires an api_key to send queries. The key must belong to the API you intend to use. Below is a snippet on how to use an api-key: 
from abstract_python import VatAPI

vat_api_key = "your_unique_vat_api_key"

vatapi = VatAPI(vat_api_key)
You can begin to call the methods available for the authenticated class.
