Get Your AI API Tokens
Replicate · fal.ai · RunningHub

FlashBoards connects to multiple AI services. Add your API tokens once and the extension will unlock models, workflows, and queue management tailored to each provider.

Why Tokens Are Required

  • • Cloud providers require API keys to authenticate requests and bill usage to your account.
  • • FlashBoards keeps tokens on your machine. They are never uploaded to Motion Design School servers.
  • • Each provider exposes models, workflows, or hardware tiers that become available in the Models modal once a valid token is saved.
Token Security

Tokens are stored locally inside your FlashBoards settings. Remove them anytime by clicking the Clear button next to each provider in Settings → AI Generation.
