Setting up your Robin account

Create a Robin Account

To create a Robin account, visit the signup page.

Create a Robin App

After filling out your information and creating your account, you’ll be prompted to create a Robin app. This prompt also requires you to select one of two authentication types — Fully Authenticated and Moderated.

A fully authenticated Robin App has end-to-end encryption. This means that neither Robin nor you — except it’s a conversation you’re involved in — will be able to see the conversations that take place on the app.

On the contrary, a moderated Robin account also encrypts conversations. However, as the owner of the Robin app, you’ll be able to see every conversation.

API Keys

Each Robin app has a unique API key, which Robin uses to identify an app. You can find it on either the get started or api config page on your Robin dashboard.
