Add Your First Device

Install Rabtly

Run the one-line installer on the device you want to connect:

curl -fsSL https://dl.rabtly.cloud/install.sh | sh

Get an enrollment token

In the dashboard, go to Settings → Access Tokens  and create a token. The same token works for both device enrollment (rabtly up --token …) and the API/CLI.

Give the token a label and, optionally, an expiry. One token can enrol any number of devices, so it’s fine to create one per team or device type and revoke it later.

The quickest path is the Add device button on the Devices page — it walks you through install and gives you a ready-to-run connect command.

Sign in (optional)

rabtly login

This lets the CLI remember your network. You can skip this step and use --token directly in the next step.

Connect

sudo rabtly up --token enrt_...

Replace enrt_... with your enrollment token. On success you’ll see:

  ✓  Connected
  Device  my-laptop
  IP      100.64.0.3

Verify in the dashboard

Go to Devices — your device should appear with a green Online badge and its private IP.

Add more devices

Repeat these steps on every device you want in your network. They discover each other automatically.

One-command install + connect

If you have an enrollment token ready, you can install and connect in a single command:

curl -fsSL https://dl.rabtly.cloud/install.sh | sh -s -- \
  --token enrt_...
