# Setup and Permissions

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create client credentials">
    From your Aikido settings, navigate to [Aikido public REST API integration](https://app.aikido.dev/settings/integrations/api/aikido/rest).

    Here, you can see a list of existing API integrations. If you already have an private app with the required permissions, you can use that. Otherwise, click on the **Add Client** button to create a new one.
