# Connect QuickBooks

Source selection and source authorization happen at different points. During setup, you select QuickBooks as the source type. You authorize the actual QuickBooks company later from the workspace.

## Before connecting

Confirm that:

* You are in the MosoFin workspace for the intended client or company.
* Your QuickBooks user can authorize access to that company.
* The workspace has fewer than five authorized QuickBooks entities.
* Your QuickBooks company is based in the United States, Australia, Canada, or the United Kingdom.

> **Country availability:** MosoFin currently supports QuickBooks companies in the United States, Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom. If your company is based elsewhere, contact MosoFin support before connecting.

## Authorize the company

1. Open the intended MosoFin workspace.
2. Select **Data sources** in the sidebar.
3. Open the QuickBooks card and select **Connect**.
4. Sign in to Intuit in the authorization window.
5. Select the correct QuickBooks company and approve the requested read access.
6. Return to MosoFin and confirm that QuickBooks shows a live status.

Repeat these steps when you need to authorize another QuickBooks entity in the same workspace. A workspace can authorize up to five QuickBooks entities, and every new workspace has its own separate allowance.

## After connecting

Open **Home** to confirm that the source and Bea are available. Then open **API Tools** to review which QuickBooks reads are enabled, require permission, or are disabled.

> **Important:** Always confirm the workspace and QuickBooks entity before approving access. The authorized entity's permitted data becomes available to authorized users and agents in that workspace.

Next, review the [available QuickBooks data](/source-and-destination/sources/quickbooks/data-overview.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.mosofin.com/source-and-destination/sources/quickbooks/connect-quickbooks.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
