Database tokens

Baserow uses a simple token-based authentication. You can use database tokens to authenticate with the REST API endpoints where you can create, read, update and delete rows. With Baserow API, you can integrate your data with thousands of services.

The REST endpoint connects two or more services and enables data exchange between the server, database, and app.

You need to generate at least one database token in your settings to use the endpoints.

To access your account page, click on the dropdown icon beside your account name in the top-right of the home screen, then click Settings from the dropdown menu.

Learn more about setting permissions to database tokens.

Collapse and resize sidebar

To maximize screen space on your dashboard, hover over the edge between the sidebar and the main content. Your cursor will change to a resizing icon. Click and drag the edge left or right to adjust the width of the sidebar to your preference.

This will collapse the sidebar, hide its content, and expand the main dashboard area.
