Make sure you have an internet connection, as the generator will need to download the current Percipio OpenAPI definitions from Percipio.

Then generate your new project:

yo percipio

You will be prompted to:

1. Create a new folder, or generate in the current working directory.
2. Select the Percipio API
3. Select the Operation

Once the generator has completed running you will need to run npm install, configure the parameters for the API call in the config/default.js file, and either populate the .env file or set environment values.

The config file will list all the configurable parameters and include derscriptions from the OpenAPI definition.
