Dropbox

Dropbox API integration with managed OAuth. Files, folders, search, metadata, and cloud storage. Use this skill when users want to manage files and folders in Dropbox, search content, or work with file metadata. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway). Requires network access and valid Maton API key.

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 (for most endpoints) or content.dropboxapi.com (for upload/download endpoints) and automatically injects your OAuth token. The routing is handled automatically based on the endpoint path.

Important: Dropbox API v2 uses POST for all endpoints with JSON request bodies.

Content Endpoints: Upload and download endpoints use a different request format where file content is sent as the raw request body and parameters are passed in the Dropbox-API-Arg header as JSON. The gateway handles routing to the correct Dropbox host automatically.

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

  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 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": "{connection_id}",
    "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', '{connection_id}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

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

File Upload

Note: Upload endpoints use a different request format. File content is sent as the raw request body, and parameters are passed in the Dropbox-API-Arg header as JSON. The gateway automatically routes these to content.dropboxapi.com.

Upload File (up to 150 MB)

POST /dropbox/2/files/upload
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Dropbox-API-Arg: {"path": "/test.txt", "mode": "add", "autorename": true, "mute": false}

<file contents>

Parameters (in Dropbox-API-Arg header):

  • path (required) - Path in Dropbox where the file will be saved
  • mode - Write mode: add (default), overwrite, or update with rev
  • autorename - If true, rename file if there's a conflict (default: false)
  • mute - If true, don't notify desktop app (default: false)
  • strict_conflict - If true, be more strict about conflicts (default: false)

Response:

{
  "name": "test.txt",
  "path_lower": "/test.txt",
  "path_display": "/test.txt",
  "id": "id:Awe3Av8A8YYAAAAAAAAABw",
  "client_modified": "2026-04-14T10:00:00Z",
  "server_modified": "2026-04-14T10:00:01Z",
  "rev": "016311c063b4f8700000002caa704e4",

}

Upload Large Files (Upload Session)

For files larger than 150 MB, use upload sessions. Files can be up to 350 GB.

Step 1: Start Session

Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Dropbox-API-Arg: {"cursor": {"session_id": "AAAAAAAAAAFxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", "offset": 10000000}, "close": false}

<next chunk of file content>

The offset must match the total bytes uploaded so far.

Step 3: Finish Session

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

)
result = response.json()
all_entries = result['entries']

# Continue while has_more is True

Notes

  • All Dropbox API v2 endpoints use HTTP POST method
  • Most endpoints use JSON request bodies (Content-Type: application/json)
  • Upload/download endpoints use binary content (Content-Type: application/octet-stream) with parameters in Dropbox-API-Arg header
  • The gateway automatically routes content endpoints to content.dropboxapi.com
  • 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
  • Maximum file size for single upload: 150 MB (use upload sessions for larger files up to 350 GB)
  • 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

StatusMeaning
400Missing Dropbox connection or bad request
401Invalid or missing Maton API key
404Resource not found
409Conflict (path doesn't exist, already exists, etc.)
429Rate limited
4xx/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:

  1. Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:
echo $MATON_API_KEY
  1. 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
