npx tambo init

Walks you through creating a Tambo project and getting your free API Key. If you don't already have an account, sign up for free to get your API key.

After obtaining your API key, you'll need to set it up in your project:

API Key Setup

Create a .env.local file in the root of your project to store your Tambo API key: NEXT_PUBLIC_TAMBO_API_KEY=your_api_key_here Replace your_api_key_here with the actual API key you received during setup. This file should not be committed to version control as it contains sensitive information.

Examples:

# Interactive setup
npx tambo init
 
# Skip prompts and use defaults
npx tambo init --yes
 
# Use legacy peer deps
npx tambo init --legacy-peer-deps
