Steps
Steps marked “human step” are ones only you can do: verapli never signs in, submits, pays or accepts terms for you.
Sign in or create a Daytona account
Sign in to Daytona. If you have no account yet, you create it yourself; verapli does not create accounts.
Where: https://app.daytona.io/
Create an API key
On the dashboard keys page click Create Key, name it, set an expiry and permissions (e.g. write:sandboxes) and copy it; later only a masked value is shown. Or run stripe projects add daytona/sandbox.
verapli captures
