# Getting Started Guide

### Prerequisites

Before you begin, you'll need:

1. A Glossi account with an active workspace
2. An API key (created in Workspace Settings → API Keys)
3. A tool for making HTTP requests (Postman, n8n)

### Step 1: Get Your API Key

1. Log in to [Glossi](https://app.glossi.io/)
2. Go to **Settings** (profile icon in top right) → **Workspace** → **API Keys**
3. Click **Create API Key**
4. Give it a name (e.g., "n8n Integration")
5. Copy your API key immediately - you won't be able to see it again!

Your API key looks like this:

```markdown
glsi_xxxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
```

**Important**: Keep your API key secret. Don't commit it to version control or share it publicly.
