1. Install the Python client.
   bash

   pip install mostlyai
2. Get your API key.
3. Generate your first synthetic dataset, using an existing generator. You will need to replace INSERT_UUID with the UUID of an existing generator that you have access to.
   python

   from mostlyai import MostlyAI
   mostly = MostlyAI(base_url="https://app.mostly.ai", api_key="INSERT_API_KEY")
   g = mostly.generators.get("INSERT_UUID")
   sd = mostly.generate(g, size=100)
4. Consume the generated data.
   python

   df = sd.data()
   df

1. With the synthetic dataset open, click Download synthetic dataset.
