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 Knock account

    Sign in to Knock. 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://dashboard.knock.app/

  2. Copy the environment's API keys

    In Platform > API keys pick the environment and copy the secret key (sk_, server only) and the public key (pk_, client). Each environment has its own keys.

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

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

What you end up with

Env varSecretFormatWhat it is
KNOCK_SECRET_API_KEYsecretsk_…Knock secret API key for one environment. Env var name is a verapli convention; the API keys page names none.
KNOCK_PUBLIC_API_KEYnot secretpk_…Knock public API key for client SDKs (copy from the same page). Env var name is a verapli convention.
