Gamma Install & Auth

Overview

Set up Gamma API and configure authentication credentials for AI-powered presentation generation.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+ or Python 3.10+
• Package manager (npm, pnpm, or pip)
• Gamma account with API access
• API key from Gamma dashboard

Instructions

Step 1: Install SDK

# Node.js
npm install @gamma/sdk

# Python
pip install gamma-sdk

Step 2: Configure Authentication

# Set environment variable
export GAMMA_API_KEY="your-api-key"

# Or create .env file
echo 'GAMMA_API_KEY=your-api-key' >> .env

Step 3: Verify Connection

import { GammaClient } from '@gamma/sdk';

const gamma = new GammaClient({ apiKey: process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY });
const status = await gamma.ping();
console.log(status.ok ? 'Connected!' : 'Failed');

Output

• Installed SDK package in node_modules or site-packages
• Environment variable or .env file with API key
• Successful connection verification output

Error Handling

Error	Cause	Solution
Invalid API Key	Incorrect or expired key	Verify key in Gamma dashboard
Rate Limited	Exceeded quota	Check quota at https://gamma.app/docs
Network Error	Firewall blocking	Ensure outbound HTTPS allowed
Module Not Found	Installation failed	Run npm install or pip install again
