Details
QuickBaseQueryReader gets records from a QuickBase online database. You can use the component attributes to define which columns will be returned, how many records will be returned and how they will be sorted, and whether the QuickBase should return structured data. Records that meet the requirements are sent out through the connected output port.
This component wraps the API_DoQuery HTTP interaction (http://www.quickbase.com/api-guide/do_query.html).
