How do I connect my Apify account?

To connect your Apify account, go to the ApifyForge Settings page, paste your Apify API token into the token field, and click Save. The connection is validated immediately, and your dashboard begins populating with actor data within a few minutes. Here is the complete step-by-step process. First, log in to your Apify account and navigate to console.apify.com/account/integrations. Click the Create Token button to generate a new API token. Give it a descriptive name like 'ApifyForge Dashboard' so you can identify it later. Copy the token — you will only see the full token once, so make sure you copy it before closing the dialog. Next, open apifyforge.com and go to the Settings page. Paste the token into the API Token field and click Save. We strongly recommend creating a dedicated token specifically for ApifyForge rather than reusing your primary API token or a token shared with other integrations. The reason is simple: if you ever need to revoke ApifyForge's access, you can delete just that token without breaking your CI/CD pipelines, monitoring scripts, or other tools that use different tokens. Apify allows you to create multiple tokens per account at no extra cost. Once connected, ApifyForge begins pulling data from the Apify API: your actor list, run history, build information, dataset metadata, and usage statistics. The initial data population typically takes two to five minutes depending on how many actors you have. After that, data refreshes automatically at regular intervals. You will see your fleet dashboard populate with success rates, revenue figures, quality scores, and Store ranking data. If the connection fails, double-check that you copied the full token (they are long strings) and that the token has not expired. You can verify your token works by visiting console.apify.com/account/integrations and checking its status. For more details on what data ApifyForge can access with your token, see the related question about what data ApifyForge can access.
