Get started

Use this guide if your team is already using Anyscale and you want access to that existing Anyscale organization. If your team doesn't have an Anyscale organization, see Get started for admins.

1. Join Anyscale

  • Contact your organization's admin and request an invitation.
  • Use the email invitation link to complete your registration and create your Anyscale account.

2. Try it out

Once you create your account, follow the quickstart tutorial in the console to learn about the platform.

Anyscale UI

You can launch an example template from the console's homepage in an Anyscale development environment. Anyscale sets up the compute resources for you, so you can get started with an example workload.

Choose from deploying and fine-tuning large language models, scaling batch inference, serving Stable Diffusion, and much more.

3. Set up your environment (optional)

To programmatically interact with Anyscale outside the console and from your terminal, you need to install the Anyscale CLI.

Step 1: Install the Anyscale CLI and Python client package

pip install -U anyscale

Step 2: Authenticate the CLI

To access Anyscale's services, you need to obtain a token that verifies your identity. Running the following command fetches and updates the token in the local credential file ~/.anyscale/credentials.json:

anyscale login

You can also manually generate your API token through the console, and set it in the ANYSCALE_CLI_TOKEN environment variable.
