Getting Started

Get up and running with the Anosys Platform in minutes. This guide walks you through creating your account, setting up your first pixel, and sending your first data.

Step 1 — Create Your Account

Sign up at console.anosys.ai and create your workspace. No credit card is required for the 7-day free trial.

Step 2 — Create an Ingestion Channel

An ingestion channel is your data endpoint. Each channel has a unique URL and API key that you use to send data to Anosys.

  1. In the Anosys Console, create a new ingestion channel.
  2. Use the tabs at the top of the channel to choose your integration method:
Tab Use Case
API Create and manage API keys for SDK integrations
GET Raw URL, image pixel, advanced script, custom mapping, or cURL
POST POST API calls with JSON body
OTEL OpenTelemetry endpoints (Generic, Traces, Logs, Metrics)
  1. Copy your API key (from the API tab) and endpoint URL — you'll need them in the next step.

Step 3 — Send Your First Data

Choose the integration that fits your workflow:

Quick Start — REST API

The fastest way to verify your setup. Send a simple HTTP request with custom parameters:

import requests

# Your Anosys ingestion URL (from the Console — GET tab)
url = "https://api.anosys.ai/ingestion/YOUR_WORKSPACE_ID/cc/YOUR_CHANNEL_ID"

# Custom parameters — s for strings, n for numbers
params = {
    "s1": "hello_world",
    "n1": 42.0
}

try:
    response = requests.get(url, params=params, timeout=10)
    response.raise_for_status()
    print("Success:", response.text)
except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
    print("Error:", e)

cURL POST:

curl --location 'https://api.anosys.ai/ingestion/YOUR_WORKSPACE_ID/cc/YOUR_CHANNEL_ID' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '[
    {
        "cvs1": "hello_world"
    }
  ]'

cURL GET:

1

curl -G "https://api.anosys.ai/ingestion/YOUR_WORKSPACE_ID/cc/YOUR_CHANNEL_ID" \
  --data-urlencode "s1=hello_world" \
  --data-urlencode "n1=42.0"

If you receive a success response, your data is flowing and will appear in the Anosys dashboards within seconds.

AI Agent Workflows

For AI-specific observability with richer tracing:

  • OpenAI Agents — auto-instrument the OpenAI Python & JS SDKs in a few lines of code → OpenAI Agents Guide
  • Claude Code — one-command SDK hook installation for full session observability → Claude Code Guide
  • Claude Code (OTEL-only) — zero-code setup via a JSON config file → Anthropic Agents Guide

Other Integrations

For OpenTelemetry, JavaScript, image pixels, decorators, and bulk ingestion, see the full Data Ingestion Options.

Step 4 — Explore Your Data

Once data is flowing, head to the Anosys Console to:

  • View traces — drill into individual requests and agent sessions
  • Build dashboards — create charts and tables for any ingested metric
  • Set up alerts — get notified in Slack or email when anomalies are detected
  • Run analysis — use built-in ML models for anomaly detection and root cause analysis
