# Vantage Apparel - How do I link my account?

# Overview

To authenticate with PromoStandards, you will need:

1. **PromoStandards ID** — the ID Vantage Apparel issued for PromoStandards web services.
2. **Password** — the password paired with that ID.

Unlike most APIs, there is no dashboard to generate these from and no OAuth flow — Vantage Apparel issues this `id`/`password` pair directly to you before you start implementation. Nango sends them inside the SOAP request body on every call, matching how PromoStandards itself authenticates — not as an HTTP header. The same credentials authenticate Order Status, Shipment Notification, and Customer Lookup.

### Prerequisites

* You need a Vantage Apparel account.

### Step 1: Finding your credentials

1. Email Vantage Apparel's integrations team at `integrations@vantageapparel.com` to request PromoStandards credentials.
2. Vantage Apparel issues you a PromoStandards **ID** and **password** for your account.
3. Credentials are per-account — if you manage multiple Vantage Apparel accounts, request a separate `id`/`password` pair for each one.

### Step 2: Enter credentials in the Connect UI

Once you have your **PromoStandards ID** and **password**:

1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with PromoStandards.
2. Enter your **PromoStandards ID** and **Password** in their respective fields.
3. Submit the form, and you should be successfully authenticated.
