Quickbase API Integrations

Build and run workflows using the Quickbase API. Use 1000s of source-available triggers and actions across 1000+ apps. Or write custom code to integrate any app or API in seconds.

Overview

The Quickbase API enables developers to build business solutions quickly and efficiently. With it, you can quickly create custom databases and applications that support your organization. The API supports all the core features Quickbase has to offer, like records and fields, table-level authentication, and views and reports. All of these add up to the ability to build powerful solutions that solve real-world problems.

Below are some examples of what developers can build using the Quickbase API:

  • Automated reports and dashboards that present data from different sources in different ways.
  • Customized applications that store and display data from Quickbase and other external sources.
  • Workflows and business processes that leverage internal and external data to streamline operations.
  • Integrations with external systems and websites that pull in data from Quickbase and keep it up-to-date.
  • A platform for developing mobile applications that access and display data stored in Quickbase.

Authentication

Quickbase uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Quickbase account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Quickbase APIs in both code and no-code steps.

To get your User Token:

  • On Quickbase, click your name in the top right and select My Preferences.
  • Scroll down to the My User Information section, click Manage my user tokens for realm name Realm.
  • Use one of the assigned tokens in the list or create a new one by clicking + New user token.

Your Hostname is 12345678 if your Quick Base URL is https://12345678.quickbase.com/
