Getting Started

After installing MagicAssistant, you just need to configure an AI provider to start chatting.

Configure Your AI Provider

MagicAssistant needs access to an AI service. You have two options:

Option 1: Use Your Own API Key (BYOK)

Bring your own API key from any supported provider:

To add your key:

1. Go to MagicAssistant → Settings
2. Select your AI provider
3. Paste your API key
4. Choose your preferred model
5. Click Save

Option 2: Use MagicDash AI Credits

All MagicDash subscription plans include AI Credits. Use them instead of your own API key.

1. Go to MagicAssistant → Settings
2. Select MagicDash AI Credits as provider
3. Choose your model
4. Click Save

Your First Chat

Once configured, you're ready to go:

1. Click Chat in the MagicAssistant menu
2. Ask something like: "What plugins do I have installed?"
3. Watch the AI respond with information about your site
