Dropbox
Access the Dropbox API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage files and folders, search content, retrieve metadata, and work with file revisions.
Quick Start
# List files in root folder python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json data = json.dumps({"path": ""}).encode() req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/dropbox/2/files/list_folder', 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
Base URL
https://gateway.maton.ai/dropbox/2/{endpoint} The gateway proxies requests to api.dropboxapi.com and automatically injects your OAuth token. Important: Dropbox API v2 uses POST for all endpoints with JSON request bodies.
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 Dropbox 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=dropbox&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': 'dropbox'}).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": "1efbb655-88e9-4a23-ad3b-f3e19cbff279", "status": "ACTIVE", "creation_time": "2026-02-09T23:34:49.818074Z", "last_updated_time": "2026-02-09T23:37:09.697559Z", "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...", "app": "dropbox", "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 Dropbox connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header: python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json data = json.dumps({"path": ""}).encode() req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/dropbox/2/files/list_folder', data=data, method='POST') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json') req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '1efbb655-88e9-4a23-ad3b-f3e19cbff279') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

Batch Operations
Delete Batch POST /dropbox/2/files/delete_batch Content-Type: application/json { "entries": [ {"path": "/file1.pdf"}, {"path": "/file2.pdf"} ] } Returns async job ID. Check status with /files/delete_batch/check. Copy Batch POST /dropbox/2/files/copy_batch_v2 Content-Type: application/json { "entries": [ {"from_path": "/source/file1.pdf", "to_path": "/dest/file1.pdf"}, {"from_path": "/source/file2.pdf", "to_path": "/dest/file2.pdf"} ], "autorename": false } Move Batch POST /dropbox/2/files/move_batch_v2 Content-Type: application/json { "entries": [ {"from_path": "/old/file1.pdf", "to_path": "/new/file1.pdf"}, {"from_path": "/old/file2.pdf", "to_path": "/new/file2.pdf"} ], "autorename": false }
Pagination
Dropbox uses cursor-based pagination. When has_more is true, use the /continue endpoint with the returned cursor. import os import requests headers = { 'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' } # Initial request response = requests.post( 'https://gateway.maton.ai/dropbox/2/files/list_folder', headers=headers, json={'path': '', 'limit': 100} ) result = response.json() all_entries = result['entries'] # Continue while has_more is True while result.get('has_more'): response = requests.post( 'https://gateway.maton.ai/dropbox/2/files/list_folder/continue', headers=headers, json={'cursor': result['cursor']} ) result = response.json() all_entries.extend(result['entries']) print(f"Total entries: {len(all_entries)}")
JavaScript
const response = await fetch( 'https://gateway.maton.ai/dropbox/2/files/list_folder', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({ path: '' }) } ); const data = await response.json(); console.log(data.entries);
Python
import os import requests response = requests.post( 'https://gateway.maton.ai/dropbox/2/files/list_folder', headers={ 'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, json={'path': ''} ) data = response.json() print(data['entries'])
Python (Create Folder and Search)
import os import requests headers = { 'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' } # Create folder response = requests.post( 'https://gateway.maton.ai/dropbox/2/files/create_folder_v2', headers=headers, json={'path': '/My New Folder', 'autorename': False} ) folder = response.json() print(f"Created folder: {folder['metadata']['path_display']}") # Search for files response = requests.post( 'https://gateway.maton.ai/dropbox/2/files/search_v2', headers=headers, json={'query': 'document'} ) results = response.json() print(f"Found {len(results['matches'])} matches")
Notes
All Dropbox API v2 endpoints use HTTP POST method Request bodies are JSON (not form-urlencoded) Use empty string "" for the root folder path Paths are case-insensitive but case-preserving File IDs (e.g., id:Awe3Av8A8YYAAAAAAAAABQ) persist even when files are moved or renamed Tag text must match pattern [\w]+ (alphanumeric and underscores only) Temporary download links expire after 4 hours Rate limits are generous and per-user 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 Dropbox connection or bad request401Invalid or missing Maton API key404Resource not found409Conflict (path doesn't exist, already exists, etc.)429Rate limited4xx/5xxPassthrough error from Dropbox API Error responses include details: { "error_summary": "path/not_found/...", "error": { ".tag": "path", "path": { ".tag": "not_found" } } }
Troubleshooting: Invalid API Key
When you receive an "Invalid API key" error, ALWAYS follow these steps before concluding there is an issue: 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
