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 Inngest account

    Sign in to Inngest. 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://app.inngest.com/

  2. Copy the environment's signing key

    Select the environment (e.g. Production) and copy the key from its Signing Key tab into INNGEST_SIGNING_KEY. Or run stripe projects add inngest/app.

    • Guided by hand
    • After: Sign in or create a Inngest account

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

  3. Create an event key

    On the environment's Event Keys page create a key for the app that sends events and set it as INNGEST_EVENT_KEY. Keep it out of browser code.

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

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