Afterward, you can re-use the newly created connection and select it for your future workflows!

If you connect Quickbooks with a MESA trigger, you must enter your Quickbook's Company ID.

To locate your Company ID, log in to the Quickbooks dashboard and click on the gear icon (Settings).

Under **Profile**, click on **Subscriptions and billing**.

Then, copy the numbers next to the **Company ID** and paste it into your Quickbooks Trigger.

**After pasting, please remove any spaces before, after, and in the middle of the numbers.** Then, **Save** your workflow.
