# ClickUp

Access the ClickUp API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage tasks, lists, folders, spaces, workspaces, users, and webhooks for work management.

## Quick Start

```bash
# List workspaces (teams)
curl -s -X GET 'https://gateway.maton.ai/clickup/api/v2/team' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'
```

## Base URL

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

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

## Authentication

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

```
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
```

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

```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. Copy your API key

## Connection Management

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

### List Connections

```bash
curl -s -X GET 'https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=clickup&status=ACTIVE' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'
```

### Create Connection

```bash
curl -s -X POST 'https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
  -d '{"app": "clickup"}'
```

### Get Connection

```bash
curl -s -X GET 'https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'
```

**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=...",
    "app": "clickup",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}
```

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

### Delete Connection

```bash
curl -s -X DELETE 'https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'
```

### Specifying Connection

If you have multiple ClickUp connections, specify which one to use with the `Maton-Connection` header:

```bash
curl -s -X GET 'https://gateway.maton.ai/clickup/api/v2/team' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
  -H 'Maton-Connection: 21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80'
```

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

## ClickUp Hierarchy

ClickUp organizes data in a hierarchy:
- **Workspace** (team) → **Space** → **Folder** → **List** → **Task**

Note: In the API, Workspaces are referred to as "teams".

## Pagination

ClickUp uses page-based pagination. Use the `page` parameter (0-indexed):

```bash
curl -s -X GET 'https://gateway.maton.ai/clickup/api/v2/list/901234/task?page=0' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'
```

Responses are limited to 100 tasks per page. The response includes a `last_page` boolean field. Continue incrementing the page number until `last_page` is `true`.

## Code Examples

### JavaScript

```javascript
const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/clickup/api/v2/list/901234/task',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/clickup/api/v2/list/901234/task',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'}
)
data = response.json()
```

## Notes

- Task IDs are strings
- Timestamps are Unix milliseconds
- Priority values: 1=urgent, 2=high, 3=normal, 4=low, null=none
- Workspaces are called "teams" in the API
- Status values must match the exact status names configured in the list
- Responses are limited to 100 items per page

## Error Handling

| Status | Meaning |
|--------|---------|
| 400 | Bad request or missing ClickUp connection |
| 401 | Invalid or missing Maton API key |
| 403 | Forbidden - insufficient permissions |
| 404 | Resource not found |
| 429 | Rate limited |
| 4xx/5xx | Passthrough error from ClickUp API |
