title: First Steps

|
||
|
||
|
||
## Install ClearML
|
||
|
||
|
||
First, [sign up for free](https://app.clear.ml)
|
||
|
||
Install the `clearml` python package:
|
||
```bash
|
||
pip install clearml
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Connect ClearML SDK to the Server
|
||
1. Execute the following command to run the ClearML setup wizard:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
clearml-init
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If the setup wizard's response indicates that a configuration file already exists, follow the instructions in
|
||
[here](../../deploying_clearml/clearml_config_for_clearml_server.md#add-clearml-to-a-configuration-file). The wizard
|
||
does not edit or overwrite existing configuration files.
|
||
|
||
1. The setup wizard prompts for ClearML credentials.
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
Please create new clearml credentials through the settings page in your `clearml-server` web app,
|
||
or create a free account at https://app.clear.ml/settings/webapp-configuration
|
||
|
||
In the settings > workspace page, press "Create new credentials", then press "Copy to clipboard".
|
||
Paste copied configuration here:
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Get ClearML credentials. Open the ClearML Web UI in a browser. On the [**SETTINGS > WORKSPACE**](https://app.clear.ml/settings/workspace-configuration)
|
||
page, click **Create new credentials** **>** **Copy to clipboard**.
|
||
|
||
1. At the command prompt `Paste copied configuration here:`, copy and paste the ClearML credentials.
|
||
The setup wizard confirms the credentials.
|
||
```console
|
||
Detected credentials key="********************" secret="*******"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Enter the ClearML Server web server URL, or press **Enter** to accept the default which is detected from the
|
||
credentials.
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
WEB Host configured to: [https://app.<your-domain>]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Enter the ClearML Server API server URL, or press **Enter** to accept the default value which is based on the previous response:
|
||
```console
|
||
API Host configured to: [https://api.<your-domain>]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Enter the ClearML Server file server URL, or press **Enter** to accept the default value which is based on the previous response:
|
||
```console
|
||
File Store Host configured to: [files.<your-domain>]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The wizard responds with a configuration and directs to the ClearML Server.
|
||
```console
|
||
CLEARML Hosts configuration:
|
||
Web App: https://app.<your-domain>
|
||
API: https://api.<your-domain>
|
||
File Store: https://files.<your-domain>
|
||
|
||
Verifying credentials ...
|
||
Credentials verified!
|
||
|
||
New configuration stored in /home/<username>/clearml.conf
|
||
CLEARML setup completed successfully.
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Now you can integrate ClearML into your code!
|
||
|
||
## Auto-log Experiment
|
||
|
||
In ClearML, experiments are organized as [Tasks](../../fundamentals/task.md).
|
||
|
||
ClearML will automatically log your experiment and code, including outputs and parameters from popular ML frameworks,
|
||
once you integrate the ClearML [SDK](../../clearml_sdk.md) with your code. To control what ClearML automatically logs, see this [FAQ](../../faq.md#controlling_logging).
|
||
|
||
At the beginning of your code, import the `clearml` package:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
from clearml import Task
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
:::note Full Automatic Logging
|
||
To ensure full automatic logging, it is recommended to import the `clearml` package at the top of your entry script.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
Then initialize the Task object in your `main()` function, or the beginning of the script.
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
task = Task.init(project_name='great project', task_name='best experiment')
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Task name is not unique, it's possible to have multiple experiments with the same name.
|
||
If the project does not already exist, a new one will be created automatically.
|
||
|
||
The console should return the following output:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
ClearML Task: created new task id=1ca59ef1f86d44bd81cb517d529d9e5a
|
||

|
||
ClearML results page: https://app.clear.ml/projects/4043a1657f374e9298649c6ba72ad233/experiments/1ca59ef1f86d44bd81cb517d529d9e5a/output/log
|
||
2021-07-25 13:59:16
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**That’s it!** You are done integrating ClearML with your code :)
|
||
|
||
Now, [command-line arguments](../../fundamentals/hyperparameters.md#command-line-parsing), [console output](../../fundamentals/logger.md#types-of-logged-results) as well as Tensorboard and Matplotlib will automatically be logged in the UI under the created Task.
