Step 1: Install the CLI
Requires Go installed locally.
See Installation for building from source instead, and for fixing a macOS Gatekeeper warning if you hit one.
Step 2: Authenticate
You’ll be prompted for your Bolna API key — grab one from the Bolna Dashboard → Developers tab. The key is validated live, then stored in your OS’s native credential store.
You can skip this step. Run any command that needs auth — including bare bolna — and it offers to log you in right there, then continues into what you originally asked for.
Step 3: Enable Autocompletion (Optional)
Enable autocompletion to get command and flag suggestions with Tab and prevent typos.
You’re all set!
Or run bolna with no arguments to open the dashboard instead.
