Creating an Application
This guide walks through creating a new application in Aero2.
Steps
Sign up or sign in
Access the Aero2 developer dashboard and sign in to your account.
Click "Create Application"
From the dashboard, click the "Create Application" button.
Choose a name
Enter a Name — a human-readable label for your application (e.g., "TaskFlow").
Aero2 automatically generates a random unique slug (e.g., swift-maple) that becomes your subdomain: {slug}.yourdomain.com. The slug is displayed after creation and cannot be changed.
Copy your API keys
On creation, Aero2 generates two API keys:
- Publishable key (
pk_live_...) — Safe for frontend use - Secret key (
sk_live_...) — Server-side only
Default configuration
Aero2 automatically creates the following for your new application:
- Default roles —
adminanduserroles with standard permissions - Default permissions — A base set of permissions for the default roles
