Steps

Steps marked “human step” are ones only you can do: verapli never signs in, submits, pays or accepts terms for you.

  1. Sign in or create a Chatbase account

    Sign in to Chatbase. If you have no account yet, you create it yourself; verapli does not create accounts.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You sign in

    Where: https://www.chatbase.co/auth/signin

  2. Upgrade to the Standard plan

    API access requires the Standard plan.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You add payment details
    • After: Sign in or create a Chatbase account
  3. Create an agent and copy its ID

    Create an agent, then copy the Agent ID from Settings > General > Agent details.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You press submit
    • After: Sign in or create a Chatbase account

    verapli captures CHATBASE_AGENT_ID here by plain code: encrypted in your browser, never shown to AI.

  4. Create an API key

    In Workspace settings > API keys click Create API Key and copy it (Bearer token). Or provision with stripe projects add chatbase/agent.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You press submit
