# Send ManyChat 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

### ManyChat

Access the ManyChat API with managed authentication. Manage subscribers, tags, custom fields, flows, and send messages through chat automation.

### Quick Start

# Get page info
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/page/getInfo')
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/manychat/{native-api-path}

Replace {native-api-path} with the actual ManyChat API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to api.manychat.com and automatically injects your API 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 ManyChat 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=manychat&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': 'manychat'}).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": "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": "manychat",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Complete the connection by providing your ManyChat API key through the connection URL.

### 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 ManyChat 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/manychat/fb/page/getInfo')
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.

      }
    ]
  }
}

### Quick Replies

{
  "version": "v2",
  "content": {
    "messages": [
      {
        "type": "text",
        "text": "Choose an option:",
        "quick_replies": [
          {"type": "node", "caption": "Option 1", "target": "content123"},
          {"type": "node", "caption": "Option 2", "target": "content456"}
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

### Buttons

{
  "version": "v2",
  "content": {
    "messages": [
      {
        "type": "text",
        "text": "Click a button:",

        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

### JavaScript

// Get page info
const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/page/getInfo',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': \`Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}\`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();

// Send a message
const sendResponse = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/sending/sendContent',
  {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'Authorization': \`Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}\`,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      subscriber_id: 123456789,
      data: {
        version: 'v2',
        content: {
          messages: [{ type: 'text', text: 'Hello!' }]
        }
      }
    })
  }
);

### Python

import os
import requests

# Get page info
response = requests.get(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/page/getInfo',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'}
)
data = response.json()

# Send a message
send_response = requests.post(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/sending/sendContent',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'},
    json={
        'subscriber_id': 123456789,
        'data': {
            'version': 'v2',
            'content': {
                'messages': [{'type': 'text', 'text': 'Hello!'}]
            }
        }
    }
)

### Notes

Subscriber IDs are unique within your ManyChat page
Flow namespaces (flow_ns) are used to identify specific automation flows
The message_tag parameter is required when sending messages outside the 24-hour messaging window
OTN (One-Time Notification) allows sending one message per topic subscription
Most POST endpoints return {"status": "success"} on success
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 ManyChat connection401Invalid or missing Maton API key429Rate limited4xx/5xxPassthrough error from ManyChat API

### ManyChat Error Codes

CodeMeaning2011Subscriber not found2012User ref not found3011Invalid message content3021Message tag required3031OTN topic not found

### 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 manychat. For example:

Correct: https://gateway.maton.ai/manychat/fb/page/getInfo
Incorrect: https://gateway.maton.ai/fb/page/getInfo
