# Boomi Account Connection

To connect your [Workspace](/boomi-console/library/the-workspace.md) to a Boomi Account you must collect some information first.

1. [**Login to your Boomi Account**](https://platform.boomi.com/AtomSphere.html#build)
2. Navigate to *Settings -> User Information*

3. Get and **note down three parameters**:  *Username*, *Account ID* and *API-Token.*

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Username" %}
The *Username* is the E-Mail Address you use to login into your Boomi Account.

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Account ID" %}
The ID of the Boomi Account that you want to connect with the Workspace.

{% hint style="info" %}
Unless your are a Boomi Consultant you have only one Account.
{% endhint %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="API Token" %}
The *Platform API-Token* used to authenticate requests to the platform API.

You can consider the Token to be a password that is used for "technical" logins. I recommend naming a token after the application that uses it: *Boomi Console*. If you don't have a Token yet, create a new one - or ask your admin to do it for you!

{% hint style="info" %}
**Be aware**: Tokens cannot be revealed. Store your tokens in a safe place.
{% endhint %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
