Qualiobee API Authentication

How to authenticate Qualiobee API requests: one Bearer API key plus a connectionId. MindCloud handles Qualiobee's custom auth scheme for you.

Every Qualiobee API request through MindCloud needs two things: a MindCloud API Key and a connectionId for your Qualiobee account. This page covers both, plus exactly how to send them, so you do not need to visit any other page to get authenticated.

Steps to authenticate

  1. Create a MindCloud account at app.mindcloud.co if you do not already have one.
  2. Generate a MindCloud API Key in API Keys. This is the Bearer token you send on every request. Keep it on your server.
  3. Create a Qualiobee connection in Connections. Qualiobee uses its own authentication scheme. You provide whatever it requires when you create the connection — MindCloud handles the provider-specific details for you.
  4. Copy the connection’s connectionId — you will send it on every request alongside your MindCloud API Key.

How requests are authenticated

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 Qualiobee account that should run the action. MindCloud stores and refreshes the Qualiobee 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.

For example, calling List Customers with an Qualiobee connection looks like this:

curl --request POST \
  --url "https://connect.mindcloud.co/v2/universal/apps/qualiobee/actions/list-customers/run" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $MINDCLOUD_API_KEY" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
  "connectionId": "$CONNECTION_ID",
  "arguments": {}
}'

The Authorization: Bearer <your MindCloud API Key> header authenticates you to MindCloud; the connectionId tells MindCloud which Qualiobee account to run the action against. Missing or invalid Authorization returns 401, and a missing or mismatched connectionId returns 400.

Set up your Qualiobee API key

You need a Qualiobee trial or live organization and admin access to the organization settings.

  1. Create or sign in to your Qualiobee organization

    Open the Qualiobee signup page and create your organization, or sign in with an existing admin account.

  2. Open the external connections settings

    After signing in, go to the organization settings area and open `Paramètres organisation > Connexions externes`.

  3. Generate and copy the API key

    Create the API key shown in the external connections page and copy it into the MindCloud connection field for API Key.

  4. Record the organization UUID

    Use the Qualiobee Swagger UI with your API key and note the `organizationUuid` used in resource paths such as `/api/{organizationUuid}/customer`.

Keep your key safe

Keep your MindCloud API Key on your server; do not ship it in browser code, mobile apps, public repositories, or logs. Anyone with the key can call the Universal API as your MindCloud account, across every connection you have created.
