Hello Team
I am currently working on Professional level certification and register using my official email id ( Subhashini_b@persistent.com) and I am facing issue in creating test scripts using Katalon Studio Assist (AI). I could not set up in my laptop and it is asking for API key. I need some assistance on this.
However, i do create some normal test cases and it is reflecting as 8/10 in my learning path. Can I proceed further with same method to complete the step ?
Kindly provide your guidance.
Thank you.

1. Fixing Katalon Studio Assist (AI) Setup & API Key Issue
Katalon Studio Assist (AI-powered feature) requires an API key for integration. Here’s how to resolve this:
Step 1: Generate/Retrieve Your API Key
- Go to Katalon TestOps > Settings > API Keys (direct link).
- Click Create API Key, name it (e.g., “Studio Assist”), and save the generated key securely.
Step 2: Configure API Key in Katalon Studio
- Open Katalon Studio.
- Navigate to Project Settings > Katalon AI.
- Paste the API key into the designated field.
- Restart Katalon Studio.
Step 3: Troubleshooting Setup Failures
- Corporate Network Restrictions: If your laptop is managed by Persistent’s IT policies, firewalls/proxies might block Katalon Studio Assist. Try:
- Using a personal device for certification tasks.
- Requesting IT to whitelist Katalon domains (
api.katalon.com
, testops.katalon.io
).
- Update Katalon Studio: Ensure you’re using Katalon Studio newer version (required for AI features).
- Verify Account Permissions: Log in with your same account (linked to your Katalon Test Cloud license).
2. Learning Path Progress (8/10)
If you’ve completed 8/10 tasks using standard test cases (without AI), here’s what to do:
- Check the Step Requirements:
- If the step explicitly requires AI-generated scripts, you’ll need to resolve the API key issue to proceed.
- If the step only requires any test case creation, your progress (8/10) should suffice. Submit the step and move forward.
3. Workaround for Certification Progress
If the API key issue persists:
- Use manual test scripting for now (e.g., record-and-playback or scripting in Groovy/Java).
- Focus on completing other certification modules while waiting for IT/Support resolution.
- API Key/Studio Assist Issue: Likely caused by corporate network restrictions or outdated software. Use a personal device if allowed.
- Learning Path: Proceed with existing progress if the step doesn’t strictly require AI-generated scripts.
