Quickbase MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Quickbase and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 62 Quickbase actions (24 reads, 23 writes and 15 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Quickbase credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Quickbase's limits and records every call.

Set up

Connect Quickbase in three steps.

01
Add actionlake to Claude.
Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.

02
Connect Quickbase.
Header credentials. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.

- user_tokenQuickbase user token (My preferences > Manage user tokens), assigned to the apps it should reach
```
account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "quickbase" }
# free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you
```

Make the first call. Check before a write.

Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, check validates the call and prices it, for free.

Top actions

The Quickbase API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 23 of Quickbase's 23 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the Quickbase actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

Governance for Quickbase

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

15 Quickbase actions are destructive. These are all of them:

Delete a tablequickbase.tables.delete
Delete an appquickbase.apps.delete
Delete record(s)quickbase.records.delete
Remove membersquickbase.groups.remove_members
Delete field(s)quickbase.fields.delete
Remove managersquickbase.groups.remove_managers
Deny usersquickbase.users.deny
Delete filequickbase.files.delete
Remove trustees from an appquickbase.trustees.remove
Delete a user tokenquickbase.user_tokens.delete
Delete a relationshipquickbase.relationships.delete
Transfer a user tokenquickbase.user_tokens.transfer
Deactivate a user tokenquickbase.user_tokens.deactivate
Remove child groupsquickbase.groups.remove_subgroups
Deny and remove users from groupsquickbase.users.deny_and_remove_from_groups

A destructive action runs only with confirm: true. Under the human policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

Illustrative. Scoped to Quickbase only, capped at 2,000 upstream calls, every write confirmed, and the destructive ones approved by a named person.

Cost

What Quickbase costs on actionlake.

Every Quickbase action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, check, cost, account and any call Quickbase refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

Questions

The Quickbase MCP server, answered.

Is there a Quickbase MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 62 Quickbase actions across solutions, apps, fields and groups, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Quickbase.

What do I need to connect Quickbase?

Quickbase realm hostname, for example yourcompany.quickbase.com and Quickbase user token (My preferences > Manage user tokens), assigned to the apps it should reach. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "quickbase" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in Quickbase?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 15 Quickbase actions are destructive, including delete a table, delete an app and delete record(s). Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

Will an AI agent use up my Quickbase API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Quickbase service file: 10 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (16 Quickbase actions can be), which never reaches Quickbase.

What does a Quickbase action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (62 Quickbase actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Quickbase refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

Which Quickbase API does it cover?

The Quickbase JSON RESTful API v1 at api.quickbase.com/v1. It is built from Quickbase's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 62 actions in 16 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my Quickbase data, and where?

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Quickbase credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

Which AI clients can use it?

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
