# Install the SDK

Install the Brizz SDK in your Python or Node.js project.

Brizz provides SDKs for Python and Node.js/TypeScript. Pick the one that matches your runtime — the rest of *Get started* is shared across both.

## Prerequisites

- A Brizz account and access to the dashboard.
- A credential, created in **Organization Settings → API Keys**: either a [Server DSN](/docs/admin/server-dsn.md) (one string carrying the credential, endpoint, and service name) or an [API key](/docs/admin/api-keys.md). Your workspace issues one or the other.
- Python 3.10+ or Node.js 18+.

:::tip
Store your API key in an environment variable. Never commit it to version control.
