# Setup the Cloud and AI Gateway

This section guides you through the complete onboarding flow to configure your **Cloud and AI Gateway** in Flashgate.

You will move through three practical stages:

1. **Add Resources**: connect your storage buckets and AI providers.
2. **Build a Repository**: group those resources behind one logical endpoint with access keys.
3. **Test a Repository**: validate data and AI operations end-to-end before production use.

## What you will find in this guide

* [**Add Resources**](/guides/setup-the-cloud-and-ai-gateway/start-with-cloud-storage.md): how to register external resources (cloud storage and AI LLM connectors) in your organization.
* [**Build a Repository**](/guides/setup-the-cloud-and-ai-gateway/start-with-cloud-storage-1.md): how to create and configure a repository, including endpoint details and API credentials.
* [**Test a Repository**](/guides/setup-the-cloud-and-ai-gateway/test-a-repository.md): how to test object storage and prompt workflows through your Flashgate endpoint.

## Before you start

Make sure your account and organization are ready, and that you have access to the target cloud provider accounts you want to connect.
