Onboarding

These onboarding guides help you quickly integrate LaunchDarkly into your application. Each guide takes you through the process of initializing a LaunchDarkly SDK.

Finding your credentials

To complete SDK setup, you must have your SDK credentials and your LaunchDarkly member ID. The SDK credentials are the server-side SDK key, client-side ID, and mobile key. Different types of SDKs require different credentials.

To find the SDK keys, click the help icon in the LaunchDarkly UI, then choose SDK keys.

To find your member ID, click your user icon in the LaunchDarkly UI, then choose Personal settings. The “Personal settings” menu opens. The “My account” section contains your member ID, which you can click to copy.

SDKs with onboarding guides

The following SDKs have onboarding guides available.

Server-side SDKs

Use these SDKs in trusted, multi-user environments like a web server.

• .NET
• Go
• Java
• Node.js (server-side)
• Python

Client-side SDKs

Use these SDKs in single-user desktop, mobile, and embedded applications.

• Android
• iOS
• JavaScript
• Node.js (client-side)

Android, iOS, and React Native are mobile SDKs. We categorize mobile SDKs as client-side SDKs because most mobile applications, like other client-side applications, have a single-user context. To learn more, read Choosing an SDK type.
