Application Token Not Working?
Hey guys!
My app has the "Require Application Tokens" field checked to true, however, I do not need an app token to use the QB API and pull data from it.
I would really like to create a more secure environment here and block users from viewing all of the data in certain tables, but I still want to give them read access to those tables so that the app can continue to function for them, only pulling in the data that they need from those hidden tables.
The only issue is that users could still get access to this hidden, and valuable, information using the QB API, and despite my attempts, I can't seem to block the API from pulling information from the hidden table. The app token doesn't seem to function here.
I am using a User Token to make the request. Is there something special about having a user token that makes me not need an app token? If that is the case, how do I block people from using the API on tables they should not be able to see?
