Set up Q.Wiki Client

Prerequisites

  • You must have Key User or Administrator access to your Q.wiki instance.

  • Your Q.wiki instance needs to be on version 6.3 or above.

  • The users or groups you want to configure must already exist in Q.wiki.

1. Create an amberconnector user in Q.wiki

Important: The amberconnector user must be created as a local Q.wiki user — directly within Q.wiki's own user management.

  1. Log in to your Q.wiki instance as a Key User or Administrator.

    • First Name: Amber

    • Last Name: Connector

    • Email address: Use a dedicated email address you have access to. This must not match any email address already stored in the Q.wiki system.

    • Optionally, you can set Key User rights during this step.

  4. Click Create invitation. The new user will receive an email with a personal invitation link.

  5. Log in as the new amberconnector user using the invitation link, enter the required personal information and password, and complete the registration.

  6. After registration, verify that access works as configured.

2. Generate a Content API Token

The amberconnector user needs a personal Content API token to allow programmatic access to Q.wiki process module content. The API respects user permissions — only pages accessible to this user will be returned.

  1. Log in to Q.wiki as the amberconnector user.

  2. Navigate to User → My Profile → Content API.

  3. Click Add Token.

  4. Copy and securely store the generated token — it will only be displayed once.

3. Share Credentials

Once the user is created, added to the ReadOnlyGroup, and the API token has been generated, please securely share the following information with the Amber support team:

  1. URL of your Q.wiki instance (e.g., https://<tenant>.qwikinow.de)

  2. Username (amberconnector)

  3. Content API Token
