Quick Start

Get up and running with Fuser in just a few minutes. This guide will walk you through creating your first AI workflow.

Before You Begin

  1. Create an Account: Sign up at app.fuser.studio
  2. Get API Keys: You'll need at least one AI provider API Key to unlock Fuser's full potential.
TIP

Don't have API keys yet? No problem! You can explore the interface and import your own media while you set them up.

Your First Workflow: Text to Image

Let's create a simple workflow that generates an image from a text description.

Step 1: Add a Text Node

  1. Add a Text Node: Press the icon in the toolbar or drag it onto the canvas.
  2. Add Your Prompt: Click on the text node that was just added to the canvas and enter a prompt like A serene mountain landscape at sunset

Step 2: Connect to an Image Generator

  1. Open the Search: Press the icon in the toolbar to open the search panel.
  2. Select Image Generator: In the search panel, choose an image generation node like Flux Dev Node.
  3. Connect the Nodes: Click and drag from the text node output to the image generator Prompt input.

Step 3: Set Up Your API Key

If you haven't already added your API key:

  1. Open Settings: Click the icon in the left sidebar
  2. Go to API Keys: Select the API Keys tab
  3. Add Your Key: Choose your provider (in this case, Fal) and paste the API key you copied from your Fal dashboard.

  2. Click Execute: Once selected, the Node Toolbar will appear. Press the button that appears in the toolbar to start the generation process.
  3. Watch the Magic: Your image will appear in the node once generation is complete.

Step 5: View and Download

  1. See Your Result: The generated image appears directly in the node
  2. Download: To download the image, first select the image node by clicking on it, then press the button in the toolbar.
