# Connect Open Library with No Authentication – StackOne Hub

> Link a Open Library account in the StackOne Hub using No Authentication. End-user guide to authorize the integration and start using Open Library actions.

## Creating Your User-Agent

Open Library asks API clients to identify themselves with a User-Agent header. It is optional - the API works without it - and identified clients get three times the request rate. You create this value yourself; it is not issued by Open Library. No portal login is required, so you simply choose a name and email to identify your application.

**1. Format your User-Agent string**

Combine your product or service name (the name of the application that will be making API calls to Open Library) with a contact email address in parentheses.

<ul>
  <li>Format: `AppName (contact@example.com)`</li>
  <li>Example: `AcmeBooksBot (admin@acme.com)`</li>
  <li>Identified requests get 3 requests per second; requests without a User-Agent get 1</li>
  <li>Use a name and contact address that let Open Library reach you if they notice high request volume</li>
</ul>

## Link the Account

**1. Connect**

<ul>
  <li>Click **Connect**.</li>
  <li>If applicable, the provider will redirect you to a sign-in or authorization page. Complete the provider's authorization flow.</li>
  <li>Once authorization is successful, you will see a confirmation popup.</li>
</ul>

**2. Use Actions**

Connect an AI platform to the linked account's actions. See [AI Platforms](https://docs.stackone.com/connect/ai-platforms/overview.md).

Other ways to call actions are listed in [Protocols & SDKs](https://docs.stackone.com/connect/protocols-and-sdks.md).
