# Quickbase

Quickbase is a no-code application development platform for dynamic work management.

Quickbase integration replicates data using the [QuickBase REST API](https://developer.quickbase.com/).

See the [Schema](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/cloud-services/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Sense_Hub/DataIntegration/WebApplications/Connecting-Quickbase.htm#Schema) section for a list of objects available for replication.

## Preparing for authentication

To access your data, you need to authenticate the connection with your account credentials.

Information noteMake sure that the account you use has read access to the tables you want to fetch.

You need administrator permissions in your Quickbase account.

To create a user token:

1. Log into your [Quickbase](https://login.quickbase.com/db/main?a=SignIn) account.

2. In the upper-right corner, select your user name, and then select Manage User Tokens.

3. Click New user token.

4. Enter the token details: a Name and a Description.

5. In the Assign token to apps section, use the drop-down lists to select the apps to which the token will be assigned.

6. Click Save.

   The new token appears in the list of user tokens.
