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
# Native Slack API call
curl -s -X POST '' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
-d '{"channel": "C0123456", "text": "Hello from gateway!"}'
IMPORTANT: If you receive a 500 Internal Server Error, this does NOT mean the service is unsupported. The most common cause is an expired OAuth refresh token (connections older than 1 month). See the "Troubleshooting 500 Internal Server Error" section below to create a new connection and retry with the new connection ID.
Base URL
Replace {app} with the service name and {native-api-path} with the actual API endpoint path.
Authentication
All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_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:
export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
Getting Your API Key
Connection Management
Connection management uses a separate base URL:
### List Connections
__CODE_BLOCK_4__
**Query Parameters (optional):**
- app - Filter by service name (e.g., slack, hubspot, salesforce)
- status - Filter by connection status (ACTIVE, PENDING, FAILED)
**Response:**
__CODE_BLOCK_5__
### Create Connection
__CODE_BLOCK_6__
### Get Connection
__CODE_BLOCK_7__
**Response:**
__CODE_BLOCK_8__
Open the returned URL in a browser to complete OAuth.
### Delete Connection
__CODE_BLOCK_9__
### 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:
__CODE_BLOCK_10__
If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection for that app.

## Error Handling
| Status | Meaning |
|--------|---------|
| 400 | Missing connection for the requested app |
| 401 | Invalid or missing Maton API key |
| 429 | Rate limited (10 requests/second per account) |
| 500 | Internal Server Error (see troubleshooting below) |
| 4xx/5xx | Passthrough error from the target API |
Errors from the target API are passed through with their original status codes and response bodies.
### Troubleshooting 500 Internal Server Error
**IMPORTANT:** A 500 Internal Server Error does NOT mean the service is unsupported. If the app is listed in the Supported Services table above, the error is likely due to an expired OAuth refresh token.
**When you receive a 500 Internal Server Error, ALWAYS follow these steps before concluding there is an issue:**
Connections that have been active for more than 1 month may have expired OAuth refresh tokens. To resolve:
1. Create a new connection for the app:
__CODE_BLOCK_20__
2. Get the OAuth URL by calling the GET connection endpoint with the new connection ID from step 1:
__CODE_BLOCK_21__
3. Share the returned url with the user and ask them to complete the OAuth flow in their browser.
4. After the user completes OAuth, retry the original request using the new connection ID via the Maton-Connection header:
__CODE_BLOCK_22__
5. Once the new connection status is ACTIVE and working, ask the user if they want to delete the old connection:
__CODE_BLOCK_23__
## Rate Limits
- 10 requests per second per account
- Target API rate limits also apply
## Tips
1. **Use native API docs**: Refer to each service's official API documentation for endpoint paths and parameters.
2. **Headers are forwarded**: Custom headers (except Host and Authorization) are forwarded to the target API.
3. **Query params work**: URL query parameters are passed through to the target API.
4. **All HTTP methods supported**: GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE are all supported.
5. **QuickBooks special case**: Use :realmId` in the path and it will be replaced with the connected realm ID.
