# Connecting amazon advertising accounts

In order to start receiving advertising data, the app will require an API connection through "login with Amazon". 

{% hint style="warning" %}
Advertising manager/partner users do not have the ability to grant API access. Only primary accounts can grant authorization.
{% endhint %}

Follow the steps below to establish a connection between your advertising account and the app:

* [x] Visit the "login with amazon URL" provided by your Advertising Beast representative. The URL will be similar to the examples below, according to the assigned server allocation:
  * `https://app.advertisingbeast.com/lwa`
  * `https://example.app.advertisingbeast.com/lwa`
* [x] Enter your contact information and choose marketplace on the form.
