API Access for Trial Account
I see that there is a similar question here: https://developer.salesforce.com/forums?state=id#!/feedtype=SINGLE_QUESTION_SEARCH_RESULT&id=906F0000000ArVTIA0
But it doesn't look like it was ever properly addressed.
It also looks like the interface for the back-end has changed a decent amount since then.
I found a good guide for starting PHP development:

But I can't figure out how to enable the API on my account nor how to retrieve the security token.

API can be enabled by modifying your profile to have the API enabled checkbox as checked.

Sumeet_Force,
Thanks for the the quick response!
I found the Reset My Security Token area and I got that emailed to me properly.
I don't seem to have an "API enabled" checkbox under Personal -> Personal Information.
Is this disabled for trial accounts?
However, it looks like the API is enabled by default as I'm able to make calls with it simply using the security token.
Thanks!
How exactly were u able to make REST API calls? I'm using a trial account as well and when I try to make a REST API call I get
An error has occured. Http status: 403
[ {
"message" : "The REST API is not enabled for this Organization.",
"errorCode" : "API_DISABLED_FOR_ORG"
} ]
