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
  2. Go to 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

  • Workspace (team) → Space → Folder → List → Task

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

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
