API gateway for calling third-party APIs with managed auth. Use this skill when users want to interact with external services like Slack, HubSpot, Salesforce, Google Workspace, Stripe, and more.
compatibility: Requires network access and valid Maton API key

# API Gateway
Passthrough proxy for direct access to third-party APIs using managed auth connections. The API gateway lets you call native API endpoints directly.
## Quick Start
```bash
# Native Slack API call
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'channel': 'C0123456', 'text': 'Hello from gateway!'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/slack/api/chat.postMessage', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF
```
## Base URL
```
https://gateway.maton.ai/{app}/{native-api-path}
```
Replace `{app}` with the service name and `{native-api-path}` with the actual API endpoint path.
IMPORTANT: The URL path MUST start with the connection's app name (eg. `/google-mail/...`). This prefix tells the gateway which app connection to use. For example, the native Gmail API path starts with `gmail/v1/`, so full paths look like `/google-mail/gmail/v1/users/me/messages`.
## Authentication
All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:
```
Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY
```
The API gateway automatically injects the appropriate OAuth token for the target service.
**Environment Variable:** You can set your API key as the `MATON_API_KEY` environment variable:
```bash
export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
```
## Getting Your API Key
1. Sign in or create an account at [maton.ai](https://maton.ai)
2. Go to [maton.ai/settings](https://maton.ai/settings)
3. Click the copy button on the right side of API Key section to copy it
## Connection Management
Connection management uses a separate base URL: `https://ctrl.maton.ai`
### List Connections
```bash
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=slack&status=ACTIVE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF
```
**Query Parameters (optional):**
- `app` - Filter by service name (e.g., `slack`, `hubspot`, `salesforce`)
- `status` - Filter by connection status (`ACTIVE`, `PENDING`, `FAILED`)
**Response:**
```json
{
"connections": [
{
"connection_id": "21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80",
"status": "ACTIVE",
"creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z",
"last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z",
"url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=5e9...",
"app": "slack",
"metadata": {}
}
]
}
```
### Create Connection
```bash
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'slack'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF
```
### Get Connection
```bash
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF
```
**Response:**
```json
{
"connection": {
"connection_id": "21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80",
"status": "ACTIVE",
"creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z",
"last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z",
"url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=5e9...",
"app": "slack",
"metadata": {}
}
}
```
Open the returned URL in a browser to complete OAuth.
### Delete Connection
```bash
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF
```
### Specifying Connection
If you have multiple connections for the same app, you can specify which connection to use by adding the `Maton-Connection` header with the connection ID:
```bash
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'channel': 'C0123456', 'text': 'Hello!'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/slack/api/chat.postMessage', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF
```
If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection for that app.
