Create your Vonage Application
In this step you will create a Vonage Application capable of in-app Chat communication use cases.
NOTE: This is the Vonage application project that allows client application to use Vonage backend.
1. Create your project directory if you've not already done so.
mkdir vonage-tutorial
2. Change into the project directory.
cd vonage-tutorial
3. Create a Vonage application by copying and pasting the command below into terminal.
nexmo app:create "App to App Chat Tutorial" --capabilities=rtc --keyfile=private.key --rtc-event-url=https://example.com/
A file named .nexmo-app is created in your project directory and contains the newly created Vonage Application ID and the private key. A private key file named private.key is also created.
Please make a note of the Application ID as you'll need it in the future.
NOTE: An application can be also created using the CLI's interactive mode.
NOTE: For more details on how to create an application and various available application capabilities please see our documentation.
NOTE: You can also obtain information about your application, including the Application ID, in the Dashboard.
