ManyChat API integration with managed authentication. Manage subscribers, tags, custom fields, and send messages through Facebook Messenger.

Use this skill when users want to manage ManyChat subscribers, send messages, add/remove tags, or work with custom fields and bot automation.

For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway).

# ManyChat

Access the ManyChat API with managed authentication. Manage subscribers, tags, custom fields, flows, and send messages through chat automation.

Quick Start

# Get page info
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/page/getInfo')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Base URL

https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/{native-api-path}

Replace `{native-api-path}` with the actual ManyChat API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to `api.manychat.com` and automatically injects your API token.

Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

**Environment Variable:** Set your API key as `MATON_API_KEY`:

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. Copy your API key

Connection Management

Manage your ManyChat connections at `https://ctrl.maton.ai`.

List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=manychat&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

Create Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'manychat'}).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

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:**

{
  "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=...",
    "app": "manychat",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Complete the connection by providing your ManyChat API key through the connection URL.

Delete Connection

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 ManyChat connections, specify which one to use with the `Maton-Connection` header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/page/getInfo')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
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.

      {
        "type": "image",
        "url": "https://example.com/image.jpg"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Quick Replies

{
  "version": "v2",
  "content": {
    "messages": [
      {
        "type": "text",
        "text": "Choose an option:",
        "quick_replies": [
          {"type": "node", "caption": "Option 1", "target": "content123"},
          {"type": "node", "caption": "Option 2", "target": "content456"}
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

Code Examples

JavaScript

// Get page info
const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/page/getInfo',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();

// Send a message
const sendResponse = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/sending/sendContent',
  {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      subscriber_id: 123456789,
      data: {
        version: 'v2',
        content: {
          messages: [{ type: 'text', text: 'Hello!' }]
        }
      }
    })
  }
);

Python

import os
import requests

# Get page info
response = requests.get(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/page/getInfo',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'}
)
data = response.json()

# Send a message
send_response = requests.post(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/sending/sendContent',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'},
    json={
        'subscriber_id': 123456789,
        'data': {
            'version': 'v2',
            'content': {
                'messages': [{'type': 'text', 'text': 'Hello!'}]
            }
        }
    }
)

Notes

Subscriber IDs are unique within your ManyChat page

Flow namespaces (flow_ns) are used to identify specific automation flows

The `message_tag` parameter is required when sending messages outside the 24-hour messaging window

OTN (One-Time Notification) allows sending one message per topic subscription

Most POST endpoints return `{"status": "success"}` on success

IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use `curl -g` when URLs contain brackets to disable glob parsing

IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to `jq` or other commands, environment variables like `$MATON_API_KEY` may not expand correctly in some shell environments

Error Handling

| Status | Meaning |

|--------|---------|

| 400 | Missing ManyChat connection |

| 401 | Invalid or missing Maton API key |

| 429 | Rate limited |

| 4xx/5xx | Passthrough error from ManyChat API |

ManyChat Error Codes

| Code | Meaning |

|------|---------|

| 2011 | Subscriber not found |

| 2012 | User ref not found |

| 3011 | Invalid message content |

| 3021 | Message tag required |

| 3031 | OTN topic not found |

Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

1. Check that the `MATON_API_KEY` environment variable is set:

echo $MATON_API_KEY

2. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name

1. Ensure your URL path starts with `manychat`. For example:

Correct: `https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/page/getInfo`

Incorrect: `https://gateway.maton.ai/fb/page/getInfo`
