Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Quick Base API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Quick Base API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Quick Base API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Developer Tools Operations

Use the Quick Base API to perform developer tools operations programmatically. The API provides 66 endpoints covering core functionality including create an app, update an app, get an app.

Call POST /apps to create an app

Automated Analytics Management

Automate analytics operations by combining multiple Quick Base API endpoints. Agents can update an app and then get an app in a single workflow.

Call POST /apps/{appId} to update an app, then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Quick Base API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'create an app', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Quick Base API apiKey credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search by intent (e.g., 'create an app') and Jentic returns the matching Quick Base API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.

Time to first call

Direct Quick Base API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs

Specific to using Quick Base API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Quick Base API use?

The Quick Base API uses an API key passed in the `Authorization` header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

Can I create an app with the Quick Base API?

Yes. Use the POST /apps endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the Quick Base API?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

How do I create an app through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'create an app'. Jentic returns the matching Quick Base API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Quick Base API have?

The Quick Base API exposes 66 endpoints covering analytics, app, apps operations.
