Quickstart

This guide will walk you through the installation of the taskingai Python package and the initial setup required to use it, including the handling of the necessary TASKINGAI_API_KEY.

Installation​

First, you need to install the taskingai package. This can be done easily using pip, the package installer for Python:

pip install taskingai

Setting Up Your Credentials​

Before you can start using the taskingai package, you need to obtain an TASKINGAI_API_KEY. This key is essential for authentication and can typically be obtained on TaskingAI console, creating a project, and navigating to the API keys page.

API Key

To set up your API key, choose one of the following methods:

  1. (Recommended) Set it as an environment variable on your local system, and the SDK will automatically load the key.
export TASKINGAI_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY
  1. Specify your API key to the SDK by passing it as a parameter to the init function in your Python code:
import taskingai

taskingai.init(api_key='YOUR_API_KEY')
