Quick Start

Get up and running with Orga AI in a few minutes. This guide walks you through creating your API key and setting it up locally.

Create your API key

Your API key is your authentication credential for Orga AI. You’ll use it to authenticate requests from your backend server.

Sign in to the Orga platform

Navigate to platform.orga-ai.com  and sign in to your account, or create an account if you don’t have one yet.

Navigate to API Keys

Once you’re signed in, open the API Keys section in your dashboard. This is where you’ll create and manage your API keys.

Create a new API key

Click the “Create new” button. You’ll be prompted to give your key a name to help you identify it later (e.g., “Production”, “Development”, “LocalTesting”).

Save your API key

After creating the key, you’ll see it displayed once—this is your only chance to copy it. Make sure to:

1. Copy the entire key (it starts with sk_orga_ai_)
2. Save it somewhere secure immediately
3. Add it to your .env file for local development (see below)

Important: Once you close this dialog, you won’t be able to view the key again. If you lose it, you’ll need to create a new one.

Set up your API key locally

For local development, add your API key to a .env file in your project root:

ORGA_API_KEY=sk_orga_ai_your_actual_key_here

Make sure to add .env to your .gitignore so you never commit your key to version control.

For detailed instructions on managing environment variables across different environments, see the environment variables guide.

Next steps

Now that you have your API key set up, you’re ready to:

• Build a secure backend proxy – Create an endpoint that issues ephemeral tokens to your clients
• Choose a tutorial – Follow a step-by-step guide for React, React Native, or Node.js
• Explore the API reference – See all available endpoints and SDK methods
