Setting up your workspace
A few quick tips to make sure you get off to a great start.
Welcome to Shinami!
This guide is for you if you just made a Shinami account. It shows you key steps to take to set up your account. It doesn't cover anything about your integration.
Here's how to
invite a team member, change your contact email and workspace name
Maybe you like working alone. That's cool. Skip to the next section.
If you prefer working on a team (like me) you'll want to visit the Workspace page of your dashboard (shown below).
Note: only admins can invite others. When you create an account, you're an admin.

- If you were invited to multiple workspaces, you'll switch between them here. Lucky you. So popular.
- The workspace button takes you to... you guessed it.
- Set the workspace to your company, app, or pet's name - something the person you invite will recognize.
- Invite someone. By default, they're a regular user and you're an admin with the power of a god!!!*
- If you mistyped the invited email address, or suddenly decide that you actually do want to work alone, you can remove the invite. If the person you invited says they didn't get it, you can resend (make sure to ask them to check their spam folder just in case).
- This is the email address we send important things like billing emails and occasional emails about key product changes that affect your workspace. By default it's the email address that created the workspace. That's a lot of pressure for one person! If this is better as another email, like
engineering@superapp.io
oraccountspayable@superapp.io
, go ahead and update it now. Currently, we don't send a verification email to the new address, so make sure to double-check the value you enter! - Choose a side.
- We operate our services out of multiple geographic regions (e.g.
US East - us1
). Not all services are currently offered in each region, but we plan to expand our offerings over time. API keys - and the API Insights we show you with your request volumes, errors, and latency - are specific to a given region. So, if you use more than one region, you'll need to use this toggle to see your API keys and activity in each. The thin blue box around the products and the Access Keys page shows what belongs to the region you've selected. To learn more about regions, see our regions FAQ. - Obviously you'll never want to log out of our product, so you can ignore this one.
*Okay, technically just the power to change the workspace name, invite and remove teammates, and update billing info. For more on workspaces and roles, see the Workspaces FAQ page of our Help Center.
understand billing and choose a node plan.
To read about what you get for free and what you have to pay for, see your dashboard's Billing page. It has a tab for each product with an explanation of what's free and what you pay for.
If you need a Node Service - and, don't we all - this is where you learn about our different plans. By default, your account is has a free plan. If you need more QPS or requests, you can sign up for a different plan (or email us at support@shinami.com
to discuss an enterprise plan).

Sui Node Service tab (we have a tab for each service).
- Click here to get to the Billing page. The Billing page is global (not tied to a specific region). So, information you find here affects all of your product usage across all regions.
- Choose the tab of the service you want to learn about.
- You can upgrade your Sui Node plan here if you need more requests than the free plan offers. If you're using Aptos, reach out to us if the free plan doesn't meet your needs.
get help with questions & issues.
You need it.
I'm kidding. But only kind of: we all need help sometimes. Here are some key resources you'll want to keep in mind:
- Help Center for commons questions about using your dashboard and using each product.
- You can always reach out to us.
