# Your First 15 Minutes

> The three things to set up, in the order that makes each one useful.

Behavly has three setup steps. The order matters: each one makes the next worth doing.

#### 1. Install The Tracking Snippet

Go to **User Activity → Setup**, add your domain, and copy the generated snippet into your site. It looks like this, with your own write key in `data-pid`:

```html
<script async src="https://behavly.io/t.js" data-pid="YOUR_WRITE_KEY"></script>
```

Paste it into the `<head>` of every page you want measured — including your signed-in pages, which is where the useful behaviour is. Then press **Test script**. Behavly polls until it sees either real events arriving or the snippet in your page's HTML.

> Note: Until this is installed there is no behaviour data, which means nothing to target with a campaign and nothing to analyse in Insights. This is the step that makes the rest of the product work.

#### 2. Connect A Sending Account

**Settings → Email**. Behavly sends through your own mailbox over IMAP/SMTP — it does not send from its own servers under your name. Without a connected mailbox, campaigns cannot send and the Inbox has nothing to read.

#### 3. Create A Campaign

**Campaigns → New** walks you through the flow and ends on a review screen. Nothing sends until you finish it, and with approval on — which is the default — nothing sends until you approve the generated emails too.

#### What Good Looks Like After 15 Minutes

- Your domain shows `Tested` in **User Activity → Setup**.
- People are appearing in **User Activity → Identified Users**.
- A mailbox is listed and marked primary in **Settings → Email**.

If the first two are not true, start at [Tracking is installed but no events arrive](https://behavly.io/help-center/troubleshooting/no-events-arriving).
