  </Step>

  <Step title="Start creating">
    You can now use prompts with the integration to generate art.

    Example prompts:

    * `Generate an illustration using /Ideogram`
    * `Create a logo design with /Ideogram`
    * `Build an AI art gallery using /Ideogram`

    <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 /Ideogram, save the generated images so my app doesn't have to fetch it again
    ```
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Your Ideogram integration is ready! Use `/Ideogram` in chat to create AI art.
