# Getting Started

## First Time Setup

When you first set up your COW instance, you'll see a message prompting you to set up your instance. Clicking on the banner will take you to the [Integrations](/using-cow/navigation/integrations.md) page where you can select your preferred methods of importing devices. Once you've got that selected, here's a few other things you can check out:

## Overview

The [Overview](/using-cow/navigation/overview.md) page will provide you with a high level view of your instance including quick links to important information for your review.

## Devices

The [Devices](/using-cow/navigation/devices.md) page will actually display your imported devices and their warranty information. If you are not going to sync with one of our supported PSAs, see [CSV Import](/using-cow/navigation/devices/csv-import.md).

## Lookup

The [Lookup](/using-cow/navigation/lookup.md) page will allow you to do a one-off lookup of a device.

## Integrations

The [Integrations](/using-cow/navigation/integrations.md) page will always be available with options for which integrations you want to configure. Check back here often as we'll be expanding integration options over time.

## Settings

The [Settings](/using-cow/navigation/settings.md) page includes information about how to manage your COW instance.

## Logs

The [Logs](/using-cow/navigation/logs.md) page will show you information on COW's progress and past attempts at looking up warranty information and any syncing with configured integrations.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cow.tech/getting-started/getting-started.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
