How do I link my IronSource account?

Step 2: Add keys to the Appodeal dashboard

At this moment you should already have the key from the previous step. Now you need to add its value on the Appodeal side to finish linking your account. Go to the Network Accounts page. Find ironSource in the list of ad networks and click on the Link your account button.
