# Setup the Cloud and AI Gateway

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

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.
