Getting started

This page takes you from installing the extension to your first labelled image. It takes a few minutes, and everything happens inside the Shopware administration.

Install and activate

Step 1: In the administration, open Extensions → My extensions.

Step 2: Find EU AI Act Compliance in the list.

Step 3: Click Install, then Activate.

After activation a new area called EU AI Act Compliance shows up in the admin menu under Content. And under Extensions → My extensions the extension now has a Configuration button that holds every setting.

The quick-start assistant

When you open the EU AI Act Compliance area, a quick-start card greets you. In four steps it shows you how to label an image as AI-generated, and gives you a short overview of the statuses and the legal background. Perfect for your first run-through.

Label your first AI image

Step 1 – Open the media: Go to Content → Media, or open a product that uses the image.

Step 2 – Pick the image: Click the image that was created or edited with artificial intelligence.

Step 3 – Set the status: In the sidebar you'll find the AI transparency section. Choose the matching status (for example "AI-generated") and – if you know it – the AI tool used.

Step 4 – Save: Save the media item. Done.

The transparency badge now appears automatically in your shop wherever that image is shown. The full walkthrough is in Labelling images & video.

A sensible order for the first days

1. Check the configuration: Set the badge up the way you like it (see Configuration). The badge is switched on by default.
2. Label your existing AI content: Start with your most important images. If there are a lot of them, bulk labelling will save you hours.
3. Check your chatbot: If you run one, switch on the chatbot notice (see What customers see).
4. Watch your coverage: The coverage dashboard shows you how complete your labelling is.
