Actually we have gone through the API reference. But, unfortunately we don't know from where to start the calling of API(s).

How to begin the development process is a big question to us.

Do we need to install the community edition in our local server for API call or we can just call the API for storing the documents?

If the simple call will be enough then what will be the exact API end point (Including domain)?

I will be very grateful if anyone can guide us.

1) For development purposes, you need to install Alfresco to some server or locally, after that REST API will be available
2) Install API Explorer - The REST API Explorer | Alfresco Documentation , it will save a lot of time for you

3) Write phyton code that will communicate with Alfresco by using HTTP calls
