  </Tab>

### Usage

To start using Cloudglue's features, you'll need to authenticate your requests with an API key. Here's how to set it up:

1. Get an API key from [cloudglue.dev](https://app.cloudglue.dev)
2. Set the API key as an environment variable named `CLOUDGLUE_API_KEY` or pass the api key in as a parameter to the `Cloudglue` class constructor.

Here's an example of how to create a Cloudglue client:

<CodeGroup>
  ```typescript JS SDK theme={null}
  import { Cloudglue } from '@cloudglue/cloudglue-js';

  const client = new Cloudglue({
  apiKey: 'cg-your-api-key-here',
  });

  ```

  ```python Python SDK theme={null}
  from cloudglue import Cloudglue

  client = Cloudglue(api_key='cg-your-api-key-here')
  ```
</CodeGroup>
