Connections and checks

Give a workspace its own Anthropic or ElevenLabs key, and use the Checks tab to confirm the workspace is ready to make videos.

The Connections tab lets one workspace use its own Anthropic or ElevenLabs key instead of the studio's. The Checks tab shows whether the workspace has what it needs to make videos.

Both are in Workspace settings. To open it, click the workspace switcher in the sidebar and choose Workspace settings.

#Connections

By default, every workspace uses the keys you set in Settings. Give a workspace its own key when its usage should be billed to a different account, such as a client's.

The tab has two rows: Anthropic (Claude) and ElevenLabs. Each row says "Uses the studio's key …" until you change it.

#Use a workspace's own key

  1. Open the Connections tab.
  2. In the Anthropic (Claude) or ElevenLabs row, click Use its own key.
  3. Paste the key.
  4. Click Test for this workspace to check it works.
  5. Click Save changes.

#Go back to the studio's key

  1. In the row, click Use the studio's key.
  2. Click Save changes.

#How keys are chosen

When the workspace has its own key, DemoVexa uses it. Otherwise it uses the studio's key from Settings.

Important

A workspace with its own Anthropic key always uses the API, even if the studio runs Claude through your Claude login. Every call is billed to that key at API prices.

Workspace keys are stored like the studio's keys: in your computer's password store (macOS Keychain, Windows Credential Manager or the Linux keyring), never shown in full again, and only sent to Anthropic and ElevenLabs.

#Checks

The Checks tab tests the workspace and shows the result of each check, with how to fix anything that fails. Click Check again after you fix something.

CheckWhat it looks at
Code folderThe app code folder set on the App & docs tab
GitThe code folder's git repository, which the Ideas page reads
Docs / how-to guidesYour docs and how-to guides
ModulesThe workspace's modules
App packagesThe app's packages. Only shown when videos use the app's own UI components.

#Fixing common problems

  • Code folder: set the folder on the App & docs tab. Use the full path, or click Choose folder…. See App and docs.
  • Git: install Git if it's missing. See Install.
  • Docs / how-to guides: set the Docs folder on the App & docs tab, or leave it empty so DemoVexa looks for it.
  • Modules: click Detect with Claude on the Modules tab. See Modules.
  • App packages: run npm install in your app's folder.

Note

These checks cover one workspace. Checks for the whole studio, such as Claude, ElevenLabs, the database and rendering, are in Settings. See Settings.
