Starting your Validate account
When you sign up for a Tonic Validate account, you create an API key for the Validate SDK (tonic_validate), then create your first project.
Signing up for Validate
To sign up for a Validate account:
In the Email Address field, provide your email address.
In the Password field, create a password for your Validate account.
Click Sign Up.
Validate creates your account and displays the Getting started page to guide you through creating a Validate API key and a project.
Creating an API key
The next step is to create an API key.
On the Getting Started panel, click Create API key.
In the Name field, type a name to use to identify the key.
Click Create API Key. Validate displays the key value, and prompts you to copy the key. If you do not copy the key and save it to a file, then you will not have access to the key. To copy the key, click Copy to Clipboard.
Click Close.
Tonic validate closes the panel and prompts you to create your first project.
Creating your first project
The next step is to create a project.
On the Create a new project panel, in the Name field, provide the name for the new project, then click Next.
Tonic creates the project and displays the confirmation panel.
The confirmation panel displays the project identifier, which you provide to identify the project when you make calls to the API. To copy the the project identifier to the clipboard, click Copy to Clipboard.
The confirmation panel also displays a code snippet that you can use to generate a metric. To copy the snippet to a clipboard, click the copy icon.
