Prerequisites

​
Step 1: Install Tatara

Tatara captures data by using an SDK within your application’s runtime. Install our Python SDK using pip. 
pip install tatara
If you’re using a requirements.txt or pyproject.toml file to manage your project’s dependencies, we recommend specifying the client version. You can view the current Python client version over at PyPi.

​
Step 2: Setting up your API key

Tatara is currently in closed beta. If you want an API key, request one by e-mailing us at [email protected] with your use case.
Once you have your API key, you’ll need to set it as an environment variable. This allows your application to securely authenticate with Tatara’s services. Use the following command in your terminal, replacing <YOUR_API_KEY> with the API key: 
export TATARA_API_KEY="<YOUR_API_KEY>"
You can also pass it directly via the SDK when initializing. 
import tatara

tatara.init(project="awesome_project", api_key=<YOUR_API_KEY>)
You’re now all set to start using Tatara!
