Companycam

CompanyCam

Access the CompanyCam API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage projects, photos, users, tags, groups, documents, and webhooks for contractor photo documentation.

Quick Start

# List projects
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/companycam/v2/projects')
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/companycam/v2/{resource}

Replace {resource} with the actual CompanyCam API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to api.companycam.com/v2 and automatically injects your OAuth 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
2. Go to maton.ai/settings
3. Copy your API key

Connection Management

Manage your CompanyCam OAuth 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=companycam&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': 'companycam'}).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": "d274cf68-9e76-464c-92e3-ff274c44526e",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2026-02-12T01:56:32.259046Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-02-12T01:57:38.944271Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "companycam",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Open the returned url in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

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 CompanyCam 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/companycam/v2/projects')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', 'd274cf68-9e76-464c-92e3-ff274c44526e')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

Code Examples

JavaScript - List Projects

const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/companycam/v2/projects?per_page=10',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const projects = await response.json();
console.log(projects);

Python - List Projects

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/companycam/v2/projects',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'},
    params={'per_page': 10}
)
projects = response.json()
for project in projects:
    print(f"{project['name']}: {project['id']}")

Python - Create Project with Photo

import os
import requests

headers = {'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'}
base_url = 'https://gateway.maton.ai/companycam/v2'

# Create project
project_response = requests.post(
    f'{base_url}/projects',
    headers=headers,
    json={
        'name': 'Kitchen Renovation',
        'address': {
            'street_address_1': '456 Oak Ave',
            'city': 'Denver',
            'state': 'CO',
            'postal_code': '80202',
            'country': 'US'
        }
    }
)
project = project_response.json()
print(f"Created project: {project['id']}")

# Add photo to project
photo_response = requests.post(
    f'{base_url}/projects/{project["id"]}/photos',
    headers=headers,
    json={
        'uri': 'https://example.com/kitchen-before.jpg',
        'tags': ['before', 'kitchen']
    }
)
photo = photo_response.json()
print(f"Added photo: {photo['id']}")

Notes

• Project IDs and other IDs are returned as strings
• Timestamps are Unix timestamps (seconds since epoch)
• Photos can be added via URL (uri parameter)
• Comments must be wrapped in a comment object
• Webhooks use scopes parameter (not events)
• User roles: admin, standard, limited
• IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use curl -g when URLs contain brackets to disable glob parsing
• IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to jq, environment variables may not expand correctly. Use Python examples instead.

Rate Limits

When rate limited, the API returns a 429 status code. Implement exponential backoff for retries.

Error Handling

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 companycam. For example:

• Correct: https://gateway.maton.ai/companycam/v2/projects
• Incorrect: https://gateway.maton.ai/v2/projects
