## **Working with JSON Responses**

QuickBooks actions return data in JSON format. You may need to parse JSON response bodies to extract specific values. For more information about working with JSON data in Glide, check out [our documentation on JSON.](/docs/automation/integrations/json)

> **Note**
>
> Parsing data from JSON responses can require additional configuration. The complexity depends on the QuickBooks objects and data you're working with.

## **Using the QuickBooks API**

For advanced use cases, the **Call QuickBooks API** action allows you to make custom API requests. [Learn more about Call API.](/docs/automation/integrations/call-api)

QuickBooks has its own API rate limits and usage restrictions based on your QuickBooks account. These limits still apply when using QuickBooks through Glide. [Learn more about QuickBooks rate limits.](https://help.developer.intuit.com/s/article/API-call-limits-and-throttling)
