How do I get a Duffel Access Token?

Sign up for a developer account at the [**Duffel Dashboard**](https://app.duffel.com/). You can generate both 'test' tokens for development and 'live' tokens for real bookings.

Can I make real bookings with this agent?

Yes, if you provide a 'live' access token, the agent can perform real flight bookings. We recommend using a 'test' token first to understand the search and booking flow.
