Create API Key
To use Pimlico's services, you'll need an API key. We recommend using our CLI for the quickest setup, but you can also use the dashboard.
Using the CLI (Recommended)
The fastest way to get started is with our CLI tool. Run the following command from your project's root directory:
pnpm dlx @pimlico/cli@latestThis command will:
- Interactively guide you through the setup process
- Create your API key automatically
- Add it to your
.envfile for immediate use
Using the Dashboard
Alternatively, you can create an API key through our web dashboard:
- Go to the Pimlico Dashboard
- Sign up or log in to your account
- Click API Keys in the sidebar
- Click Create API key
- Copy your API key and add it to your project's
.envfile
Next Steps
Once you have your API key:
- Add it to your
.envfile asPIMLICO_API_KEY=your_key_here - Start building with our tutorials
