# Send Cognito Forms to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### Cognito Forms

Access the Cognito Forms API with managed OAuth authentication. List forms, manage entries (create, read, update, delete), and retrieve documents.

### Quick Start

# List all forms
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/cognito-forms/api/forms')
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/cognito-forms/{native-api-path}

Replace {native-api-path} with the actual Cognito Forms API endpoint path (starting with api/). The gateway proxies requests to www.cognitoforms.com 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

Sign in or create an account at maton.ai
Go to maton.ai/settings
Copy your API key

### Connection Management

Manage your Cognito Forms 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=cognito-forms&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': 'cognito-forms'}).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": "77de1a60-5f69-45fc-977c-9dfffe7a64d4",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2026-02-08T10:39:10.245446Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-02-09T04:11:08.342101Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "cognito-forms",
    "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 Cognito Forms 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/cognito-forms/api/forms')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '77de1a60-5f69-45fc-977c-9dfffe7a64d4')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

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

### Forms

List Forms

GET /cognito-forms/api/forms

Returns all forms in the organization.

### Entries

Get Entry

GET /cognito-forms/api/forms/{formId}/entries/{entryId}

}

Field names match your form's field names. Complex fields like Name and Address use nested objects.

Update Entry

Content-Type: application/json

{
  "Name": {
    "First": "Jane",
    "Last": "Doe"
  },
  "Email": "jane.doe@example.com"
}

Updates an existing entry. Uses PATCH method (not PUT). Fails if the entry includes a paid order.

Delete Entry

DELETE /cognito-forms/api/forms/{formId}/entries/{entryId}

Deletes an entry. Requires Read/Write/Delete API scope.

### Documents

  "File": "https://temporary-download-url..."
}

### Files

Get File

Response:

{
  "Id": "file-id",
  "Name": "upload.pdf",
  "ContentType": "application/pdf",
  "Size": 54321,
  "File": "https://temporary-download-url..."
}

### Name Fields

{
  "Name": {
    "First": "John",
    "Last": "Doe"
  }
}

### Address Fields

{
  "Address": {
    "Line1": "123 Main St",

    "City": "San Francisco",
    "State": "CA",
    "PostalCode": "94105"
  }
}

### Choice Fields

Single choice:

{
  "PreferredContact": "Email"

### JavaScript

const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/cognito-forms/api/forms',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': \`Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}\`
    }
  }
);
const forms = await response.json();

### Python

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/cognito-forms/api/forms',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'}
)
forms = response.json()

### Create Entry Example (Python)

import os
import requests

entry_data = {
    "Name": {"First": "John", "Last": "Doe"},
    "Email": "john@example.com",
    "Message": "Hello from the API!"
}

response = requests.post(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/cognito-forms/api/forms/ContactForm/entries',
    headers={
        'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}',
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    json=entry_data
)

### Notes

List Entries: The Cognito Forms API does not support bulk listing of all entries. Use webhooks or OData for syncing entries.
Get Form: Returns 404 - use List Forms to get form information instead.
Form Availability: This endpoint may not be available depending on your Cognito Forms plan.
Entry IDs can be either the entry number or entry ID (format: {formId}-{entryNumber})
Complex fields (Name, Address) use nested JSON objects
File uploads return temporary download URLs
Document generation creates PDFs from form templates
API scopes control access: Read, Read/Write, or Read/Write/Delete
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

StatusMeaning400Missing Cognito Forms connection401Invalid or missing Maton API key404Form or entry not found429Rate limited (100 requests per 60 seconds)4xx/5xxPassthrough error from Cognito Forms API

### Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:

echo $MATON_API_KEY

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

Ensure your URL path starts with cognito-forms. For example:

Correct: https://gateway.maton.ai/cognito-forms/api/forms
Incorrect: https://gateway.maton.ai/api/forms
