Creating Your Account

Here’s a step-by-step guide to get started with the BFL API:

Create an account

Go to dashboard.bfl.ai and register your account. You’ll need to confirm your email before logging in.

Create your API Key

Once logged in, you will arrive on your BFL Dashboard - there you can create an API KEY by clicking the Add Key button in your dashboard.

Give your API key a descriptive name that helps you identify its purpose later, like “Production App” or “Testing Environment”.

Click on + Add Key

Use your API Key

Your new API key will be created. You can always access your API keys and their values later in the dashboard.

You can see your api key now

Set up your environment

Add your API key to your environment variables for easy access:

export BFL_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"

Or store it securely in your application’s configuration.

Keep your API key secure and never expose it in client-side code. Treat it like a password!
