# Setup

## 1. Create a Cloutly account

Set up your Cloutly account and required features in the platform.

## 2. Retrieve your REST API key

Go to `Settings -> API Keys` and copy your API key.

> The API key is server-side only. Do not expose it in frontend code.

## 3. Retrieve your Embed signing key

Go to platform settings and manually retrieve/create the signing key used to sign embed JWTs.

> Keep the signing key in secure backend secrets storage only.

## 4. Configure your integration

Use both credentials depending on your use case:

* `x-api-key` for REST API calls from your backend.
* Embed signing key for short-lived JWT session provisioning.
