This guide walks you through the essential setup in the AgentRuntime Console: create a workspace, invite a teammate, connect an integration, and run your first workflow.

​
Before you begin

  • An AgentRuntime account (sign up with email or Google)
  • Project contributor access (or tenant admin) in your workspace
  • An API key or OAuth account for at least one connector you want to use (for example, a Google account or a Resend API key)

​
Steps

1

Sign in and complete onboarding

Open the Console and sign in. New users are guided through onboarding to create a workspace (tenant) and your first project. Choose a workspace name your team will recognize in notifications and URLs.
2

Review workspace settings

Go to Settings and confirm your workspace name and slug. The slug appears in API calls and shared links. Set billing preferences if you are on a paid plan.
3

Invite a teammate (optional)

From Settings → Team & Members, invite teammates by email. Assign a project role — project contributor for builders who will edit workflows, project viewer for read-only observers. See Roles and permissions.
4

Add an LLM provider key

Go to Providers and add an API key for your preferred LLM vendor (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and others). Workflow LLM call steps resolve models through this catalog. See LLM providers.
5

Connect an integration

Go to Connections and connect a tool:
  • Google — OAuth for Gmail, Drive, Sheets, Calendar, and other Workspace MCP adapters
  • WhatsApp — Embedded signup or manual credentials
  • API key connectors — Create a generic connection and paste the key (for example, Resend, Exa, or GitHub)
See Connections for step-by-step flows.
6

Install an MCP instance

Go to MCP, browse the platform catalog, and install a server (for example, gmail or resend). Bind your saved connection to the instance so workflow steps can call tools with the right credentials. See MCP instances.
7

Create and run a workflow

Open Workflow Studio and create a workflow. Add at least one step — an MCP call to a tool on your installed instance, or an LLM call step. Click Validate to dry-run the graph, then Run to start your first execution.Watch live step events in the run panel. If the workflow includes a human approval step, complete it from Command Center.
You can also create and run workflows through the REST API with a personal access token. External automation should always go through the BFF at https://api.agentruntime.io, not internal service URLs.
