Authenticating
AppsFlyer uses API Key Auth, a developer-friendly delegated access protocol. Quolum has already connected the necessary wires with AppsFlyer. Using a sequence of click-throughs, your organization's administrator allows Quolum to make API calls to AppsFlyer without getting access to passwords.
Step 1: Initiate a connection to AppsFlyer
Click the Connect button from the Connections card. If you are not an admin, you can invite your organization's AppsFlyer admin to make a connection to your AppsFlyer organization account. When you click on the Connect button, the web browser will open a pop-up asking API Key and API Secret as shown in Step 2.

Step 2: Log in to AppsFlyer
Log in to AppsFlyer using your organization's credentials. The exact login mechanism may depend on your AppsFlyer plan, and the sign-in mechanism used. You may have corporate SSO such as Azure AD, GSuite, or Okta along with multi-factor authentication. Sometimes you may need to enter an API key and a token, the step by step details of which can be found in step 3. Once you have successfully logged-in you can find the API Key and API Secret as mentioned below in Step 3.

Step 3: Finding the API Key and API Secret in AppsFlyer
Step 3.1: Go to your Appsflyer account admin page(https://support.appsflyer.com/hc/en-us/articles/360004562377-Managing-API-tokens). There we can find all the information that is required as shown above.
Step 4: Back to Quolum
Once you have granted access to Quolum, the Connect button on the Connections card would now say Reconnect. Reconnect is used to reauthenticate under circumstances where the access has expired.
Under the hood
Using the OAuth protocol, Quolum now has delegated access to your AppsFlyer Workspace. The Quolum server, running on Amazon AWS VPC, will be able to make API calls and retrieve feature-level utilization. Later, this data is crunched and available for visualization on the Quolum dashboard.
