The Tailscale integration integrates the [Tailscale](https://www.tailscale.com) API
with Home Assistant; giving you the possibility to monitor and automate on
the state of the devices in your Tailscale VPN network (Tailnet).
## Prerequisites
To use the Tailscale integration, you will need to obtain an API key,
you can create one in the [Tailscale Admin Panel](https://login.tailscale.com/admin/settings/authkeys).
Additionally, you will need to know the Tailnet name of your Tailscale network.
You can find it in the top left corner in the [Tailscale Admin Panel](https://login.tailscale.com/admin/settings/authkeys)
(beside the Tailscale logo).
