How do I authenticate an already signed in user in my app. 

User already logged in site.quickbase.com and clicks a formular button.
The button opens a new tab in the browser, which has my PHP app.

How can i authenticate this user in my app..instead of requiring the user to login

You can't do this. The ticket issued when you log into QuickBase is inaccessible to JavaScript as it is saved and sent as a secure HTTP only cookie. The only way to gain access to a ticket via JavaScript is by immediately reading the XML response from API_Authenticate and this is not the mechanism used when doing a normal login to QuickBase through the web page.
