## Where does your workload run?

Pick the platform your application lives on. We'll use this to pre-fill your Trust Provider choice later. You'll pick your Client Workload identifier directly in the tutorial.

## Is Aembit Edge already running for this platform?

If Edge is already deployed, we'll skip the install phases and start straight from creating your Client Workload.

Yes — Agent Controller and Agent Proxy are runningThe tutorial will collapse phases 1–3 into a single “Verify Edge is running” check, then jump to creating your Client Workload.No — show me the full setupThe tutorial will include all 7 phases starting with installing the Agent Controller.Not sure — show me a command to checkWe'll show the verification command for your platform. Run it, and come back with the answer.

Run this to verify

Run the command that matches your specific this platform environment.

## Which specific environment?

We've narrowed the options to what's valid for your platform.

No environments are available for this platform yet. We're still expanding coverage — try for now.

## Agent Controller Trust Provider

During installation, the Agent Controller proves its *own* identity to Aembit Cloud using**a Trust Provider**. Pick the attributes Aembit will match on — it checks **all selected attributes**, and the tutorial shows the value to enter for each.

## How will Aembit identify your workload?

Pick one or more identifiers that your workload can expose at runtime. Aembit will check**all selected identifiers** before granting credentials. The recommended set matches the typical shape for your environment.

Other identifiers available for this environment

All identifiers must match

The tutorial will show you the exact values to fill in for each identifier you pick.

## Trust provider

Pick the Access Policy Trust Provider for this tutorial. Most environments have multiple valid options; the one Aembit recommends for this environment is marked. This is your **Access Policy** Trust Provider (APTP) — separate from the one that attests the Agent Controller itself (ACTP).

## Access Policy Trust Provider attributes

Pick the attributes of **this Trust Provider** your workload can prove at runtime. Aembit checks **all selected attributes**, and the tutorial shows you the exact value to enter for each.

## What are you connecting to?

Pick the server your workload needs credentials for. Use the category filters to narrow the list.

## Which credential strategy?

Pick how Aembit should mint or fetch the credential for your server. We've filtered out strategies that aren't compatible with your Trust Provider or this server's supported auth methods.

## Review and start your tutorial

Here's the shape you've composed. The tutorial will stitch together the shape partials for each of the following dimensions into a single end-to-end walkthrough.
