# Getting started as a reseller

> Apply in about two minutes, pass the certification quiz, and unlock the reseller dashboard. Everything happens inside the Actionist app.

    Fill in six fields about your business, then pass a certification quiz built from the Knowledge Center. Both steps happen inside the Actionist app, and the Master Dashboard unlocks the moment you pass. No separate portal, no waiting on a human to approve you.

    <p className="text-base text-gray-600 dark:text-gray-400 max-w-3xl">
      Everything reseller-related sits behind the **Reseller** tab in the app, at the in-app route `/reseller`. That tab's sub-navigation is split into two groups, and only one of them is locked before you certify.
    </p>
  </div>

  | Sub-nav group              | Items                               | State                                                                                                                        |
  | -------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
  | **Master Dashboard**       | Overview, Clients, Revenue          | Locked. Every item shows a padlock with the tooltip "Unlocks after you pass the certification quiz." until you're certified. |
  | **Learning & client view** | Certification Hub, Knowledge Center | Open from day one. You can read every module and browse the Hub before you've even applied.                                  |

  <p className="text-base text-gray-600 dark:text-gray-400 max-w-3xl" style={{marginTop:'14px'}}>
    The **Certification Hub** entry disappears from the sub-nav once you're certified, since you no longer need it. The **Knowledge Center** entry stays, and it embeds the same learning content you're reading right now inside the app.
  </p>

  <Info>
    A **Manage Reseller** entry can also appear in the Learning & client view group, but only when your own workspace is itself managed by another reseller. That is unrelated to your certification status. See [How resellers work](/resellers/how-it-works).

  | Business email        | Placeholder `hello@halo.studio`. Read-only and pre-filled from your account. Only becomes editable if your account has no email on file, in which case you'll see: "Your account has no email on file. Enter a business email here, or add one to your account first." |
  | Website               | Placeholder `halo.studio`. Auto-normalizes when you tab out of the field.                                                                                                                                                                                              |

  <p className="text-base text-gray-600 dark:text-gray-400 max-w-3xl" style={{marginTop:'14px'}}>
    That's the whole form. There's no tax ID or VAT field on this screen, whatever any older internal notes might say. **Company / Agency name** is worth getting right the first time, it's what shows up on the client-facing reseller profile attached to every workspace you manage, not just an internal label. Clicking **Cancel** discards the form and returns you to the landing view, nothing is saved until you submit.
  </p>

  <Tip>
    Type `halo.studio` into **Website** and tab out, and it becomes `https://www.halo.studio` automatically. Already typed `http://` or `https://` yourself? The form leaves it alone. Already includes `www.`? It won't get doubled up.
  </Tip>

  <Note>
    Docs and the Knowledge Center are always available; no submission required. Next, pass the certification quiz to take your reseller account live.
  </Note>

  <Tip>
    Every field is required, and validation only appears after your first click on **Submit application** (email and website format errors are the exception, they check as you type). If you're not sure what's missing, click **Submit application** once, empty form and all, and read what lights up: "First name is required.", "Last name is required.", "Company name is required.", "Business email is required.", "Enter a valid email", "Website URL is required.", "Enter a valid URL", "Country is required."

  <Info>
    The Hub itself, not this page and not any other marketing copy, is the authority on how many questions the quiz has and what score passes it. It renders a live spec line straight from the certification API, something like `{'{{count}}'} questions · pass at {'{{percent}}'}%`, filled in with whatever currently applies. Older marketing copy elsewhere mentions a fixed exam length and six modules. Ignore it. The Hub only ever shows four modules, and this page won't quote you a number either.

    That warning tooltip shows on every version of the button, whether it reads **Launch quiz**, **Retake quiz**, or **Starting…**. There is one more state worth knowing about: the button force-disables, with no explanation shown anywhere on the page, when the backend flags both `canStartQuiz` and `canRetakeQuiz` as false. If that happens to you, don't assume it's broken. Go straight to [Troubleshooting](/resellers/troubleshooting).

    Each module maps to a real boundary you'll live with once you're managing client workspaces. Here's what each one actually covers.
  </p>

  <Tabs>
    <Tab title="Agent Configuration" icon="users">
      Building an agent with a clear role and clear boundaries: what it can access, what it shouldn't touch, and how a client's grant for **Allow reseller to modify agent Prompts & Instructions** maps to what you're actually allowed to edit inside their workspace. See [Agents, prompts and instructions](/resellers/agents) for the delegated-session version of this.
    </Tab>

    <Tab title="Prompting & Instructions" icon="pencil">
      Writing system prompts and few-shot examples that hold up under real client use, plus the guardrails that keep an agent from wandering off-task. It's the same craft whether you're building for your own workspace or a client's, the quiz tests judgment here, not memorized syntax.
    </Tab>

    <Tab title="Skills & Tools" icon="puzzle">
      Choosing, installing, and maintaining the skills and MCP servers an agent calls on, and reading structured tool output well enough to trust it. See [Skills](/resellers/skills) and [MCP servers](/Folders/mcp).
    </Tab>

    <Tab title="Apps & Integrations" icon="plug">
      What you can wire up yourself under a client's **Allow reseller to manage Apps and MCP** grant, and exactly where the line sits: installing a credential-based app, connecting OAuth, and anything touching a secret always stays with the client, no matter what's enabled. See [Apps, tools and integrations](/resellers/apps).

      Nice, that's right. Apps and MCP (the `tools_and_integrations` scope) is what lets a reseller manage MCP servers, tools, and app connections that don't require credentials.

    <div className="xrs-answer-wrong">
      Not quite. Apps and MCP (the `tools_and_integrations` scope) is the one that covers MCP servers and tool settings. Try that option.

    That scope is also the one with the most exceptions attached to it: even with it granted, installing a credential-based app or connecting an OAuth app always stays with the client. See [Apps, tools and integrations](/resellers/apps) for the full boundary.

  </div>

  <AccordionGroup>
    <Accordion title="Set your language first" icon="languages">
      Do this before you click **Launch quiz**, not after. The quiz locks to whatever language your Actionist account is set to at the moment you launch it, out of 7 supported languages: English, Español, Français, Deutsch, Português, 日本語, and 中文. The in-quiz language button is permanently disabled, and its tooltip says exactly why: "Language is set from your account settings. To change it, exit the quiz, update your language in Settings, then retake the exam." Change it in [Settings](/Folders/settings), then come back and launch.
    </Accordion>

    <Accordion title="During the quiz" icon="play">
      The top bar shows the brand **"Reseller Certification"**, a progress readout formatted `{'{{ordinal}}'} / {'{{total}}'}`, a running count of correct answers, and a close button. For each question: pick an option, click **Check** (it reads **"Checking…"** while pending), read the feedback, either **"Nice, that's right"** or **"Not quite"** plus a short explanation either way, then click **Continue**. On the final question, that button reads **Submit quiz** instead. Clicking the close button doesn't just exit, it opens the leave modal covered a couple of accordions down, so nothing there is silent.
    </Accordion>

    <Accordion title="If you pass" icon="badge-check">
      Results show three numbers no matter how you did: Correct (`score/total`), Score (a percentage), and Best streak, the longest run of consecutive correct answers in that attempt. On a pass you'll see **"You're certified!"** and **"Welcome to the Actionist Reseller program. Your Master Dashboard is now unlocked. Onboard clients, track revenue, and manage their workspaces directly from the Reseller tab."** Click **Enter my Dashboard** to go straight there.
    </Accordion>

    <Accordion title="If you do not pass yet" icon="rotate-ccw">
      You'll see **"Almost there"** and **"You scored {'{{score}}'} of {'{{total}}'}. You need {'{{threshold}}'} correct to pass. Take it again whenever you're ready, every retake pulls a fresh set of questions."** Two buttons: **Back to Hub** or **Retake quiz** right away. Every retake is a new question set, memorizing the last attempt won't carry you through the next one, so it's worth actually reading the four study modules rather than brute-forcing it.
    </Accordion>

    <Accordion title="Leaving mid-quiz" icon="log-out">
      Click the close button and a modal appears: **"Leave the certification quiz?"** with the body **"Your progress on this attempt will not be saved. If you leave now, this counts as a used attempt and you'll start from question 1 next time."** It also shows three live stats, Answered, Correct so far, and Remaining, then two buttons, **Keep going** or **Cancel and exit**. There is no partial save. An abandoned attempt is a used attempt, full stop.

    <Accordion title="Launch quiz is disabled and nothing tells me why" icon="ban">
      When the backend flags both `canStartQuiz` and `canRetakeQuiz` as false, the button force-disables and the Hub shows no explanation at all, not a tooltip, not a banner. This is not a bug you can fix from the form. Go to [Troubleshooting](/resellers/troubleshooting) and work through what to check.
    </Accordion>

    <Accordion title="Retake quiz threw away my in-progress attempt" icon="rotate-ccw">
      If a run is already `in_progress` (say you left mid-quiz and came back), the CTA reads **Retake quiz**, and clicking it cancels that run entirely and starts a brand new attempt from question 1. There is no continue-where-you-left-off option. Partial progress is never resumable, on any path back into the quiz.
    </Accordion>

    <Accordion title="The quiz launched in the wrong language" icon="languages">
      Language locks in the instant you click **Launch quiz**, not before. If it's wrong, exit the quiz, change your language in [Settings](/Folders/settings), and launch again. There's no in-quiz language switch, the button for it is permanently disabled by design.
    </Accordion>

    <Accordion title="I can't edit the Business email field" icon="mail">
      That's expected. It's read-only and pre-filled from your account by default. It only becomes an editable text field if your account has no email on file at all, in which case a note appears telling you to add one there or add one to your account first.

  <p className="text-base text-gray-600 dark:text-gray-400 max-w-3xl" style={{marginTop:'20px'}}>
    Most of the friction on this page traces back to one habit: set your language before you launch, and treat every CTA warning as literal. The quiz genuinely does not forgive a refresh, and a disabled button genuinely does not explain itself. Everything else here is a two-minute form and four short modules.
