# Baserow - How do I link my account?

# Overview

To authenticate with Baserow, you need:

1. **Base URL** - Your Baserow instance's base URL.
2. **Database Token** - A token that grants access to a database's tables through the Baserow API.

This guide will walk you through finding your **Base URL** and generating your **Database Token** in Baserow.

### Prerequisites

* A Baserow account (Cloud) or self-hosted instance.

### Instructions

#### Step 1: Finding your base URL

Your **Base URL** is your Baserow instance's root URL — don't include `/api`:

* **Baserow Cloud**: `https://api.baserow.io`.
* **Self-hosted**: `https://<your-domain>`.

#### Step 2: Generating your database token

1. Log in to Baserow and open your account settings.
2. Go to the **Database tokens** section.

3. Create a new token and choose a name for it.
4. Select the workspace, and optionally scope it down to specific databases or tables, choosing which of create, read, update, and delete permissions to grant.
5. Click the 3 dots next to the generated Token and copy the token.

<Note>
  A token only grants the permissions and table access you assigned it. If a request fails with a permission error, check that the token has the right scope and CRUD permission for that table.
</Note>

#### Step 3: Enter credentials in the Connect UI

Once you have your **Base URL** and **Database Token**:

1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with Baserow.
2. Enter your **Base URL** and **Database Token** in the fields provided.
3. Submit the form, and you should be successfully authenticated.

You are now connected to Baserow.
