Access the Trello API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage boards, lists, cards, checklists, labels, and members for project and task management.
# Get boards for current user python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/trello/1/members/me/boards') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF
https://gateway.maton.ai/trello/{native-api-path}
Replace
{native-api-path} with the actual Trello API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to api.trello.com and automatically injects your OAuth token.
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"
Manage your Trello OAuth connections at
https://ctrl.maton.ai.

Response:

If you have multiple Trello 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/trello/1/members/me/boards') 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.
