Getting started

Connect a Ruby application securely.

This public guide presents the initial path. Real credentials are generated only inside your authenticated Account and must never be sent in support tickets or documentation.

Create and confirm the Account

Use public registration to create the first Owner identity and provide the Account name. Before email confirmation, no Account, membership, or permission is created.

Create the first Project

After signing in, use the Dashboard CTA. Provide a name, optional description, and initial environment. Creation grants access to the Owner but does not generate a Project Key automatically.

Install chronos-ruby

Add the supported version to the Gemfile and install it. The authenticated panel provides the Project ID, variables, and initializer for the selected integration type.

gem "chronos-ruby", "~> 1.2.0"

bundle install

Verify the integration

After deploying the credential to the client application, run verification. Chronos observes the receipt and first event without asking you to paste the Project Key again.

bundle exec rake chronos:verify_integration

Protect the credential

The full Project Key is shown once. Store it in the deployment secret vault. If lost, generate another, validate the new integration, and revoke the previous key.
