Code Examples
JavaScript
const response = await fetch(
'https://api.maton.ai/gumroad/v2/products',
{
headers: {
'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
}
}
);
const data = await response.json();Python
import os
import requests
response = requests.get(
'https://api.maton.ai/gumroad/v2/products',
headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'}
)
data = response.json()Python (Verify License)
import os
import requests
response = requests.post(
'https://api.maton.ai/gumroad/v2/licenses/verify',
headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'},
data={
'product_id': 'your_product_id',
'license_key': 'CUSTOMER-LICENSE-KEY'
}
)
result = response.json()
if result['success']:
print(f"License valid! Uses: {result['uses']}")
else:
print(f"Invalid: {result['message']}")Notes
- All responses include a
successboolean field - Product creation is not available via API - products must be created through the Gumroad website
- POST/PUT requests use
application/x-www-form-urlencodedcontent type (not JSON) - Prices are in cents (e.g., 500 = $5.00)
- License keys are case-insensitive
- Resource subscription webhooks send POST requests to your specified URL
- IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to
jqor other commands, environment variables like$MATON_API_KEYmay not expand correctly in some shell environments
Error Handling
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 400 | Missing Gumroad connection or bad request |
| 401 | Invalid or missing Maton API key |
| 404 | Resource not found (returned with success: false) |
| 429 | Rate limited |
| 4xx/5xx | Passthrough error from Gumroad API |
Gumroad errors typically return HTTP 404 with a JSON body:
{
"success": false,
"message": "Error description"
}Troubleshooting: API Key Issues
- Check that the
MATON_API_KEYenvironment 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://api.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))
EOFTroubleshooting: Invalid App Name
- Ensure your URL path starts with
gumroad. For example:
- Correct:
https://api.maton.ai/gumroad/v2/user - Incorrect:
https://api.maton.ai/v2/user
