{% stepper %}
{% step %} <sub>**Create a Firecrawl account**</sub>

<sub>Open</sub> [<sub>API keys</sub>](https://www.firecrawl.dev/app/api-keys)<sub>. Create an account or sign in. A free tier may exist; still treat the key as production sensitive.</sub>\
![](/files/ULWaafdW8KOueEdWQ4J6)
{% endstep %}

{% step %} <sub>**Create an API key**</sub>

<sub>Use “Create key” (or equivalent). Copy the value once. Keys usually start with fc-. Store it only in your password manager or straight into ARIA.</sub>\
![](/files/Svme8kVNxs8AhIQw7Ayn)
{% endstep %}

{% step %} <sub>**Confirm billing and throughput**</sub>

<sub>Open plan or usage in the Firecrawl app. Heavy crawl batches can burn credits fast. Align budget with how often ARIA will call scrape endpoints.</sub>
{% endstep %}

{% step %} <sub>**Respect target sites**</sub>

<sub>Robots, terms of service, and rate limits still apply to you. If a URL blocks crawlers, pick another source for demos instead of fighting the site in public.</sub>
{% endstep %}

{% step %} <sub>**Paste in ARIA & Test**</sub>

<sub>In ARIA</sub> <sub></sub><sub>**Settings**</sub><sub>, open</sub> <sub></sub><sub>**Firecrawl API Key**</sub><sub>, paste,</sub> <sub></sub><sub>**Save**</sub><sub>, then</sub> <sub></sub><sub>**Test**</sub><sub>. ARIA runs one scrape against</sub> <sub></sub><sub>`firecrawl.dev`</sub> <sub></sub><sub>to verify the key is accepted.</sub>
