  <Step title="Add your API key">
    1. Paste your API key into the "BACKGROUND\_REMOVER\_API\_KEY" field

    <Tip>
      Need a new key? Generate one in your Background Remover dashboard.
    </Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Use it">
    You can now use prompts with the integration to remove image backgrounds.

    Some examples:

    * `Remove the background from this product image with /ReplicateBackgroundRemover`
    * `Create a profile photo editor with /ReplicateBackgroundRemover`
    * `Build an image upload form that removes backgrounds using /ReplicateBackgroundRemover`

    <Warning>
      The API limits how often your app can fetch data. If your app loads the same data often, ask the agent to save it locally so it doesn't re-fetch every time.
    </Warning>

    Example prompt for optimization:

    ```
    When using /ReplicateBackgroundRemover, save the processed images so my app doesn't have to fetch them again
    ```
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Your Background Remover integration is ready! Use `/ReplicateBackgroundRemover` in chat to process images.
