App Store and Mac App Store Connect Integration With 2FA
In This Article
Overview
If your App Store Connect account is protected with 2FA (two-factor authentication), you can set up the integration through AppFollow’s secure App Store Connect subaccount.
The integration with App Store Connect allows you to reply to positive and negative reviews, improve your app visibility, and get more downloads.
New reviews are delivered to the Reviews page, Slack, email, and help desks 4 times per day. After you set up the integration, they are updated every hour.
After you set up the App Store Connect Reply to Reviews integration, AppFollow will be able to access the reviews feed and send replies via the API. This access is regulated by App Store Connect Roles. Learn more about the available roles further in this article: Roles and Permissions.
