- 5. #QBConnect What is an Open API? An Open API has published documentation, a published endpoint, and published terms of use. Third parties can freely build against an Open API with only a minimum of reasonable and explicit restrictions to protect end users, such as identity theft protection, PCI compliance, or reasonable load.
