Update link to Integration manager #428
Conversation
The four-squares-icon for integration management are apparently no longer a thing in the latest element. Also, just using the direct link avoids having to create a room.

Maybe just a nitpick, but the mobile clients on Android and iOS still have the integrations button on the top right. I think it makes sense to explain both variants.

The direct URL is not meant to be used outside of the client frame, and won't work for new installations.

It's been a while now, but remember that I actually had to do it using the direct link. Creating a room and using the "Add widgets, bridges & bots" link resulted in a access token belongs to real user error, if I recall correctly

That error is intentional and a sign that the deployment was not done correctly. Dimension is deliberately designed to work within the context of a client and not outside of it, and it needs a dedicated access token in its config to avoid issues relating to database consistency.

Is there any documentation about this error and how to avoid it? I remember I couldn't find anything a couple of weeks back.

The config.yaml comment for access_token specifically mentions
The access token Dimension should use for miscellaneous access to the homeserver, and for tracking custom sticker pack updates. This should be a user configured on the homeserver and be dedicated to Dimension (create a user named "dimension" on your homeserver).
