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 Typesense account

    Sign in to Typesense. 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://cloud.typesense.org/

  2. Create a cluster

    Launch a Typesense Cloud cluster and wait until it is in service.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You press submit
    • After: Sign in or create a Typesense account
  3. Generate API keys

    In the cluster dashboard click Generate API Keys to get an admin key and a search-only key. Keep the admin key server-side.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You press submit
    • After: Create a cluster

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

    If something goes wrong (1)
    • Keys can't be generated yet: Wait until the cluster status is in_service. [2]
