Kana provides developer tools for pricing and packaging. Build powerful and reliable monetisation flows in minutes, by easily integrating your product with our flexible API and plug-and-play SDKs.

Welcome

Quick Start

In order to get Kana working, you'll need to first understand a few of the concepts that make up our product, alongside how these all work together. This guide acts as a reference for all things Kana - in particular the terminology and inner workings of how things link.

Kana Concepts

Now you know the basics of Kana, we can start by helping you setup and integrate Kana into your product. This will act as a full, end-to-end product run-through whereby we'll cover creating the core components of Kana, and how you can utilise Kana's functionality for package and pricing management.

Overview

Setup

Whenever a user signs up to your product, you will need to create that user in Kana so they can subscribe to packages and in turn access your product's features.

Create Users

Kana needs to know whenever a user of your product has used a feature. It's a requirement so that we have accurate information on what feature's customers have used (and by how much) within the package(s) they have subscribed to.

We currently have no publicly accessible Ruby SDK library, so it may be beneficial for you to use one of the various GraphQL clients as provided through the link below, or to setup your own.

The Kana CLI is a command-line interface making it easy for engineers to review and update pricing and entitlement configurations programmatically. It allows you to define Kana packages and features through code without initial dashboard setup, reducing the friction to get started with Kana.
