# Onboarding

To add the Out of the Blue provider channel, you'll need to generate an API key that will be used to send error reports to your account.

Open your account settings, and select Preferences:

In the left-hand panel, select API Key:

Click on the Generate API Key option:

Give your key a name and click on Generate API Key:

When the API key is generated, it **will be shown once**. Click the copy button next to the generated key to copy it:

{% hint style="warning" %}
The API key will only be shown once, so make sure that the value is copied before closing the pop-up. You will not be able to see the value again. If you lose access to this API key, you'll need to revoke it and create a new one.
{% endhint %}

You can now paste this value into the API token field in the channel form:

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.edgetag.io/channels/out-of-the-blue/onboarding.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
