Account Setup

To get started with Bytebot, you will first need to set up an account. If you have already done this, you can skip this section and sign in instead.

Sign Up

To begin, create an account. Bytebot accepts three authentication methods:

  • Email/password pair
  • SSO authentication via a Google account
  • SSO authentication via a GitHub account

Create an Organization

After making your account, you will need to create an organization. This organization can be later shared with other teammates.

An organization needs a name and a slug URL (i.e. your website’s URL). Optionally, you can assign it a profile picture.

Create organization page

Generate Your API Key (Optional)

After you’ve created an organization, you will be able to access the Bytebot administrative portal. If you want to eventually execute Bots remotely, you will want an API key.

To create an API key, navigate to the API Keys tab on the left-hand menu. Then, click on Create API Key button.

Generate Key

Be sure to provide your API key with a descriptive name (e.g., production key). Then, click on the Create Key button to create it.

When you create an API key, you can only view it once. Click the copy icon to save the API key to a safe place. If you lose your API key, you will need to create a new one.

Where should I store my API key?

An API key is akin to an account password. Store it in a safe place. We recommend using a secure password manager, an encrypted file, or a secrets manager. Do not commit your API key to a repository.

Next Steps

Once you have set up your organization and created an API key, you’re ready to begin exploring Bytebot. Next, discovery Bytebot’s Core Concepts.
