# Onboarding

Iterable channel integration enables your site to send events to **Iterable** with a simple credential-based setup. Let's walk through the process.

### How to get an Iterable API Key?

Go to [Iterable](https://app.iterable.com/) and in the top menu, click on **Integrations**, then **API keys**.

Disable **JWT authentication** because all calls are from the server side, so your secrets are never exposed.

Copy the created **API Key**

### Add Channel

To add a channel, begin by entering the channel's name. We recommend choosing a name that clearly describes the channel you are adding. This will assist with debugging if any issues arise.

Once you have entered the name, enter the **API Key** copied from the **Iterable** dashboard.
