# Onboarding Overview

### **Making the most of EdgeTag**

This onboarding guide is designed to help you realize maximum value from EdgeTag within your first 30-60 days. Unlike our platform-specific installation docs, this section focuses on strategic implementation, helping you prioritise use cases, validate results, and scale effectively based on your business goals.

### **What you'll find here**

This guide covers the **why** and **when** of EdgeTag implementation, **not just the how.** You'll learn:

* Best practices for handling non-standard funnels
* Testing strategies to validate incrementally and measure impact
* Common pitfalls to avoid during implementation
* Scaling playbooks to expand from initial wins to full-platform adoption

For the How of EdegTag onboarding, please refer to our [technical setup documentation](https://docs.edgetag.io/). However, before you get started with the next section of onboarding, please make sure you have followed our [Guide to Get started on EdgeTag](/overview/getting-started.md).

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

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.edgetag.io/onboarding/onboarding-overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

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.
