# Setup and Configuration

> Get set up with a Helium paywall and incorporate it into your app!

This quickstart shows you how to set up, preview, and go live with an AI-editable Helium paywall in your app.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a Helium Account">
    Create your Helium account at [app.tryhelium.com](https://app.tryhelium.com).

    </Frame>

    This will take you to the **Helium dashboard**, where you can create paywalls, manage api keys and integrations, run A/B tests, view analytics, and more.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect your App Store(s) Products">
    Visit [Integrations → Products](https://app.tryhelium.com/integrations/products) and sync your products from the App Store and/or Google Play store.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a Paywall">
    Navigate to the Paywalls tab in the sidebar and click **New Paywall** to get started. You will get a modal that will then allow you to create a paywall from scratch, use an existing template, or get started straight from screenshots.

    </Frame>

    Once you create your paywall you will need to add the product buckets that you added above. Then use our editor to tune and edit your paywall to your liking: you can check out our editor best practices to get a better understanding of the editor capabilities.

    </Info>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create Workflows and Triggers">
    A workflow defines which paywall(s) to show a user and when. Each workflow contains one or more triggers, which you reference from your app code to display the appropriate paywall.

    1. Navigate to **Workflows** and click **Create Workflow**. (Navigate to the workflows page from the sidebar navigation > Click create workflow > Give your workflow a name > Select your newly created paywall > Save!)
    2. Add a **trigger** to your workflow. (Navigate to your newly created workflow > Click on Add Trigger > Create a new trigger using the modal > Add the newly created trigger to your workflow > Save!)

    </Columns>

    Triggers should reflect the specific moments in your app where a paywall should appear — for example, when a user attempts to access a premium feature.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install and Setup the Mobile SDK">
    Select your SDK framework and complete the guide to get integrated in your app:

  </Step>

  <Step title="Set up Revenue Reporting">
    Revenue reporting enables Helium to provide detailed analytics about your app's monetization performance. **Enabling it is recommended to get the most out of Helium.**

    Follow our [guide on revenue reporting](https://docs.tryhelium.com/guides/revenue-reporting) to connect Helium to your app's revenue events via webhooks.
