Creating a sub user in App Store Connect
To create a sub-user:
- Log into your App Store Connect
- Click on Users and Access
- Click the + button at the top of the page.
- Set the First Name and Last Name fields to to Appfigures and Analytics
- Set the email field to an email that isn't your main email but you have access to.
- Select the following permissions from the list: Finance and Customer Support.
- Click Invite.
It should look something like this:
Apple will send an email to the address you provided. Follow the instructions in the email to complete the setup.
Linking your subaccount with an app-specific password from Apple will be the most reliable. Once the app-specific password is created you will not have to refresh the connection (like you would with 2FA).

When you have a password, proceed into your Appfigures account's Linked accounts screen and link the account using the email address and password from the previous steps.
