Set up your product

Every integration starts from a published revision with a Price and a merchant test key. Create them for your own product; each step also names the text-generation example that the guides use.

Sign in to the recuut app. If your account has no workspace, create one when prompted; if access is unavailable, ask your recuut contact for an invitation before continuing.

In the recuut app:

1. Open Resources, choose Create resource, and name the API endpoint or digital item you sell. The guides use a Resource named Text generation API.
2. Open the Resource and choose Create revision. Add one variable for each quantity you price or record, with its unit and source: Input for values your server derives before the work runs, Output for values measured after it. Publish the revision. The guides use Text generation v1, with input_tokens read from the request and output_tokens returned by the handler, both in token.
3. Copy the published revision key beginning with rvk_.
4. Under Revision pricing, create and publish a Price in USD, then turn on Require payment for the revision. The guides use a fixed Price with a flat fee of 0.01. Pricing explains free, flat, and variable Prices.
5. Open Organization → Environments. Expand Test credentials if needed, choose Reveal Test key, then Copy Test key. Keep the key on the server only.

The revision key is generated by recuut. Yours will differ from examples in the API Reference. The guide examples use the text-generation names; with your own revision, use the names and variables you published.

To see a working paid endpoint first, try an example. For a Python application, pull contracts next, then protect a route with FastAPI or Django. For any other server stack, continue with the Direct HTTP integration.
