Web Console Overview
New to the hosted app? Create your first image, connect your provider, and understand provider billing versus workspace storage.
The Go Bananas! Web Console provides a visual interface for managing your image generation workflows.
Accessing the Console
Sign in at gobananasai.com/login with your email and password, Google or GitHub. New here? Create an account on the same page and confirm your email. See Accounts and sign-in.
Authentication
After you sign in, pick your workspace in the account menu. If setup is incomplete, follow Create your first image. Workspace owners and managers can manage provider connections in Dashboard → Workspace Settings.
A Go Bananas API key is for client access; it does not replace the workspace’s Gemini or OpenAI provider connection.
