Baserow API Documentation
This is the complete API documentation for connecting to the Baserow API using MindCloud's Universal API. If you are new to MindCloud, start with the Introduction to see how one API can sit in front of many different apps.
MindCloud is an integration company that offers one normalized API to access 3,100+ apps from a single place. It cleans up provider-specific quirks, keeps requests and responses consistent, and centralizes authentication so you do not need to manage separate flows for every app. Browse other apps.

Quickstart
Before you run your first Baserow request, you need three things:
- A MindCloud account — sign in or create an account at MindCloud.
- A MindCloud API Key — create one in API Keys. Keep it on your server.
- At least one Baserow connection — create or choose one in Connections. Note its
connectionId.
Every Baserow action uses the same URL pattern:
https://connect.mindcloud.co/v1/universal/baserow/latest/actions/{actionSlug}You need a MindCloud API Key and a Baserow connection. Then call an action such as Check Database Token:
curl --request GET \
--url "https://connect.mindcloud.co/v1/universal/baserow/latest/actions/check-database-token" \
--header "Authorization: Bearer $MINDCLOUD_API_KEY" \
--get \
--data-urlencode "connectionId=$CONNECTION_ID"Every response comes back in the same envelope, with your rows in a data array:
{
"success": true,
"data": [
{ "id": "1042", "name": "Ava" }
],
"meta": {}
}After your first request works, use Shape your requests to control arguments, pagination, filtering, fields, and errors.
Authentication
Authentication has two layers. Your MindCloud API Key authenticates the request to MindCloud, sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header. The connectionId selects the connected Baserow account that should run the action. MindCloud stores and refreshes the Baserow credentials behind that connection, so you never send provider tokens with your requests.
Pass connectionId in the query string for GET and DELETE actions, and in the JSON body for POST, PUT, and PATCH actions. Keep your MindCloud API Key on your server; do not ship it in browser code, mobile apps, public repositories, or logs.
Set up your Baserow database token
You need access to the target Baserow workspace, database, and table before you connect this app.
- Create a database token
In Baserow, open your workspace settings and create a database token for the workspace that contains the table you want to use. Copy the token immediately after Baserow shows it.
- Find the table and database IDs you need
Open the target database or table, then open View API Docs or check the browser URL to collect the table ID and, when needed, the database ID.
- Confirm the API URL
If you use Baserow Cloud, use https://api.baserow.io. If your team uses a self-hosted Baserow instance, use that instance's API URL from its own API documentation.
