Steps
Steps marked “human step” are ones only you can do: verapli never signs in, submits, pays or accepts terms for you.
Sign up for Stytch
The person signs up on the Stytch dashboard. verapli never creates the account.
Where: https://stytch.com/dashboard
Create the project
Create a project and choose Consumer Auth or Multi-tenant (B2B) Auth; the type decides which API and SDKs apply.
Copy project ID and secret
In the Project & API keys section copy the project ID and secret for the Test environment (development) or Live (production). verapli captures the secret into STYTCH_SECRET.
