# Give us access to your tools, safely

Step-by-step help to create the keys our automations need and send them to us securely. No technical knowledge needed.

Paste this into any AI assistant:

```
Read https://guide.upliftedconsulting.com/agents.md and help me give Uplifted Consulting access to my tools.
```

## Choose how you want to do it

- [With an AI assistant](https://guide.upliftedconsulting.com/start-here/your-tools?mode=ai.md): Recommended. Tick your tools, copy one prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot. It walks you through everything.

- [Myself, step by step](https://guide.upliftedconsulting.com/start-here/your-tools?mode=self.md): Tick your tools and get your own checklist with a guide for each one. Most take 2 to 5 minutes.

## How it works

### Step 1: Pick your tools

We will tell you which tools we need. Tick them on [Your tools](https://guide.upliftedconsulting.com/start-here/your-tools.md), or open a tool from the menu.

### Step 2: Create a key in each tool

Each guide shows exactly where to click. New to this? Read [What is an API key?](https://guide.upliftedconsulting.com/start-here/what-is-an-api-key.md) first.

### Step 3: Send them in one secure link

Put the keys in one [OneTimeSecret](https://guide.upliftedconsulting.com/start-here/sending-securely.md) link and send us only the link. Never paste a key into email, Slack or WhatsApp.
