AppFollow is a cloud-based mobile analytics solution which assists businesses review management and competitor analysis. It is an all-in-one service to promote your mobile app and get more app downloads.

In order to integrate AppFollow with Relyance AI you will need an **API Secret**.

#### In AppFollow:

1. Login to your AppFollow account.
2. In the left-hand navigation menu, click the **Account** menu item.
3. On this page, in the right-hand side, you'll see a small box with the API Secret.
4. Copy this **API Secret** to be used in Relyance.

#### In the Relyance AI application:

1. Login to your Relyance AI account.
2. Navigate to the **Settings** (bottom-left corner).
3. Select **Integrations**.
4. Search and locate the **AppFollow** integration card and click on it.
5. Click on the **Add Connection** button on the top right.
6. Provide a meaningful name for the integration and click on the **Add** button.
7. In the **Overview** section, review the **Scope and Permission**, and **Endpoint** details and click on **Continue**. For more details, see [Integration Features](/docs/introduction-to-relyance-ai/integration-features/).
8. In the **Connection** section, provide the appropriate values and click on **Continue**,
    - **Connection Name**: This property allows you to update the integration specified in Step 6. If you have multiple integrations for the same vendor, you may want to assign distinct names to each. This helps streamline filtering by **Discovery Source** across the **Inventory**, **Visual** **Maps**, **Assets**, and **Data Flow Analysis** pages.
    - **Rescan Frequency**: This property allows you to configure how often Relyance executes scans against this Vendor connection.
    - **Business Atlas Associations** (required): the business entities or products that newly discovered third parties, services and assets from this integration are attributed to. Choose at least one from the **Select Associations** dropdown — the wizard will not advance past this step without one. For more details, see [Business Atlas](/docs/other-settings/business-atlas-overview/).
9. In the **Authentication** section, Please choose the **Authentication Method** and **API Secret,** click on **Authenticate**.
10. Review the configuration summary from the **Completion** section and click on **Finish.**
11. Confirm the integration Status reflects **Connected.**

## Authentication methods and fields

Pick one of these under **Authentication Method** on the connection wizard's **Authentication** step. This table is generated from the integration catalog, so it always matches what the form actually asks for.

| Method | Required | Optional |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Custom** | `API Secret` (secret) | — |

## Manage this integration with Terraform

Connections for this integration can be managed as code with the [Relyance Terraform provider](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/Relyance/relyance/latest). Non-secret fields go in `auth.params`; secret fields go in `auth.secrets_wo`, which is write-only — never stored in Terraform state. Rotate secrets by bumping `auth.secrets_wo_version`.

```hcl
resource "relyance_integration_connection" "appfollow" {
  vendor = "appfollow"
  name   = "<your connection name>"

  auth = {
    method = "api-key"
    params = {
      data_storage_location = "us"
    }
    # Secret fields are write-only: sent to Relyance, never stored in state.
    secrets_wo = {
      api_secret = var.appfollow_api_secret
    }
    secrets_wo_version = 1
  }

  scans = { "property-inspection" = { enabled = true } }
}
```
