After payment confirmation, you'll receive a welcome email at your specified address. This email includes a link to set up your Thryve account.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Create your account

Click **CREATE MY THRYVE ACCOUNT** in the welcome email. Follow these steps:

1. Set a secure password for your Thryve account.
2. Configure two-factor authentication (2FA) with an authenticator app.
3. Name your app.

After setup, Thryve automatically creates two app environments:

* `staging-{your_app_name}` – For testing and development.
* `live-{your_app_name}` – For production.

You'll then be redirected to the Thryve Dashboard overview page.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Access and store your credentials

After naming your apps, you'll receive three separate emails containing:

1. **Global API Key:** Required for any API requests; this key is consistent across all your Thryve apps
2. **App Authentication Keys**: Required for SDK initialization and API requests; each Thryve app receives unique credentials.
3. **SDK Download Credentials:** Necessary to download Thryve SDK dependencies

{% hint style="info" %}
All credentials are displayed only once and expire 24 hours after email delivery. Store them securely and share them only with authorised team members. If you lose access to your credentials, [contact support](https://thryve.zendesk.com/) to generate a new credential set. Previously shared credentials cannot be recovered.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Explore Thryve using the product demo tour (optional)

Upon first accessing the Dashboard, you'll be invited to begin the product orientation tour. You have the option to skip it and revisit later or complete the 5-step guided setup immediately.

**Key Features of the Tour:**

* **Staging App Setup**: Configure your app and manage settings within the Thryve Dashboard.
* **Data Source Selection**: Choose which data sources and data types you want to enable.
* **Webhook Configuration**: Establish and test webhook endpoints using mock payloads.
* **User Experience Simulation**: Experience the Thryve connection widget as your end users would.
* **API Testing**: Test Thryve API requests using either real or mock data.

Any configurations made during the tour are saved to your staging app, providing you with a foundational setup to build upon.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
