    ```
2. Run `composer update`.
3. Now `SiftClient` will be autoloaded into your project.

    ```
    require 'vendor/autoload.php';

    $sift = new SiftClient(array(
        'api_key' => 'my_api_key',
        'account_id' => 'my_account_id'
    ));

    // or

    Sift::setApiKey('my_api_key');
    Sift::setAccountId('my_account_id');
    $sift = new SiftClient();

    ```
