Get started
Sign in, create an API key, install the SDK, see your first classified request.
Four steps. The last one is the point: your own traffic, classified, in the log.
1. Sign in
Go to edge-dashboard.d3.com. Enter
your work email, then the six-digit code we send you. That is the whole
sign-in. D3 Edge runs its infrastructure on the d3.com domain.
D3 Edge is in early access: if your email isn't recognized, request access and we'll set your org up.
2. Create an API key
In the dashboard, open API keys and create a key.
Shown once
Store the key in your platform's secret store immediately. Both SDK guides use the name
POLICY_ADAPTER_KEY. Never put it in code or client-side config.
- You can identify it later. The dashboard shows each key's first 12 and last 4 characters, so you can match a key in a config to a key in the list without ever seeing the secret again.
- It's scoped to your organization. Every log row is tagged with your organization and every read filters on it. There is no cross-tenant visibility.
- Revocation is fast. Revoke a key in the dashboard and it stops being accepted everywhere within about two minutes; the window is cache propagation.
3. Install the SDK
Pick your platform:
- Vercel:
npm install, onemiddleware.ts, two environment variables. Self-serve, about five minutes. If your project already has amiddleware.ts, read this first. - Cloudflare: a thin worker in your own Cloudflare account, in front of your origin. We set this up with you.
4. Watch the first request land
Deploy, then hit your site. A plain curl https://your-site.example/ is
enough. Open the dashboard log and you'll see the request within moments,
looking something like:
GET / unverified curl/8.9 just nowunverified is correct for your curl: it carries no signature and
matches no crawler fingerprint. That's it. Every request to your site is
now classified, and the next 24 hours will show you what else has been
visiting.
