Save the API Key

After installing a non-development server, the graphical installer will show an API key in a pop-up window. Save this key, as you will need this when adding the server in the Devin App.

If you loose the API Key, it can be located in /Program Files/Devin/info.json on the server.

On Linux, you have two options for installing Devin: interactively or unattended. The interactive is the recommended method and involves manual installation steps, suitable for individual installations. Unattended installation is ideal for setting up Devin on multiple servers simultaneously, as it requires no manual input during the process.

sudo apt-get update -y

sudo apt-get upgrade -y

sudo apt-get install unzip -y
