The service will ask you for permission for the Altcraft Platform application. Click "Allow access". Your connection will appear in the list of connections on the platform.

When all fields are filled in, click the "Connect" button. If successful, a confirmation will appear on the screen. If you receive an error message instead, check if the account information you entered is correct and try again.
Every time you make a successful attempt to connect to VK Advertising™, the platform creates an access token. Even if you do not save this connection, the token remains in the system. The number of tokens cannot be more than 5. If the system does not allow you to create another connection, activate the "Revoke previously issued access tokens" option when creating a connection.
If the connection has been established, click the "Save" button. After saving the connection, you can proceed to setting up the integration.
