- Open Settings > Vedika API to choose the language, cache duration and theme.

Sandbox samples and production data
Leave the API key blank to use free sandbox endpoints with sample data. Sandbox output is for testing and does not calculate a visitor's live chart.
For production, obtain your own key from the Vedika dashboard and save it under Settings > Vedika API. The plugin then uses production endpoints, with usage billed to that key's account. See current pricing before enabling production calls.
Keep the key in the plugin settings. Do not put it in a shortcode, page, block, widget or public URL.
Public credits are optional and off by default, including for existing installations. They can be enabled explicitly under Settings > Vedika API > Public credits; all features work with credits off.
Chart and compatibility forms send the entered information to the Vedika API. Read the Privacy Policy and Terms for the external service.
