On the Monero offical website I read that document but I can't understand.
If anyone knows, please update....

You didn't specify any specific language so I'll assume you're using a shell. Even if you don't, it shouldn't be hard to run a shell command using a different language.
Download the latest command-line tools from https://getmonero.org/downloads/
Extract and run the following command
monero-wallet-cli --generate-new-wallet "my_wallet_name" --password "pass123" --mnemonic-language English --create-address-file
This will create and open a new wallet (and keep it open). If you want to create a wallet and immediately close it you could use
echo "exit" | ./monero-wallet-cli --generate-new-wallet "my_wallet_name" --password "pass123" --mnemonic-language English --create-address-file
That's it. A new wallet named my_wallet_name was created with password pass123. You can see your address by running
cat my_wallet_name.address.txt

I'm sorry but I'm not sure what you have in mind. API is a general term, and "generate address using API" is a bit undefined. Please try to give more details about what you wish to do.– JonaCommented Jul 17, 2018 at 15:13

Or use the monero-wallet-rpc which has a json rpc "API" getmonero.org/resources/developer-guides/… Commented Jul 18, 2018 at 8:23
