jobber（jobber 搜索）

Jobber

Access the Jobber API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage clients, jobs, invoices, quotes, properties, and team members for field service businesses.

Quick Start

# Get account information
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
query = '{"query": "{ account { id name } }"}'
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/jobber/graphql', data=query.encode(), 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

API Type

Jobber uses a GraphQL API exclusively. All requests are POST requests to the /graphql endpoint with a JSON body containing the query field.

Base URL

https://api.maton.ai/jobber/graphql

Maton proxies requests to api.getjobber.com/api/graphql and automatically injects your OAuth token and API version header.

Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

Maton automatically injects the X-JOBBER-GRAPHQL-VERSION header (currently 2025-04-16).

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 Jobber OAuth connections at https://api.maton.ai.

List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections?app=jobber&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': 'jobber'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.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://api.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": "2026-02-07T09:29:19.946291Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-02-07T09:30:59.990084Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "jobber",
    "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://api.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 Jobber connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
query = '{"query": "{ account { id name } }"}'
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/jobber/graphql', data=query.encode(), 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 you have multiple connections, always include this header to ensure requests go to the intended account.

Security & Permissions

• Access is scoped to clients, jobs, invoices, quotes, properties, and team members for field service businesses within the connected Jobber account.
• All write operations require explicit user approval. Before executing any create, update, or delete call, confirm the target resource and intended effect with the user.

}

Response includes pageInfo:

{
  "data": {
    "clients": {
      "nodes": [...],
      "pageInfo": {
        "hasNextPage": true,
        "endCursor": "abc123"
      }
    }
  }
}

Webhooks

Jobber supports webhooks for real-time event notifications:

• CLIENT_CREATE - New client created
• JOB_COMPLETE - Job marked complete
• QUOTE_CREATE - New quote created
• QUOTE_APPROVAL - Quote approved
• REQUEST_CREATE - New request created
• INVOICE_CREATE - New invoice created
• APP_CONNECT - App connected

Webhooks include HMAC-SHA256 signatures for verification.

Code Examples

JavaScript

const query = `{ clients(first: 10) { nodes { id name emails { address } } } }`;

const response = await fetch('https://api.maton.ai/jobber/graphql', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`,
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({ query })
});

const data = await response.json();

Python

import os
import requests

query = '''
{
  clients(first: 10) {
    nodes { id name emails { address } }
  }
}
'''

response = requests.post(
    'https://api.maton.ai/jobber/graphql',
    headers={
        'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}',
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    json={'query': query}
)
data = response.json()

Notes

• Jobber uses GraphQL exclusively (no REST API)
• Maton automatically injects the X-JOBBER-GRAPHQL-VERSION header
• Current gateway API version: 2025-04-16 (latest)
• Old API versions are supported for 12-18 months from release
• Use the GraphiQL explorer in Jobber's Developer Center for schema discovery
• IDs use EncodedId type (base64 encoded) - pass as strings
• Field naming: use emails/phones (arrays), jobStatus/invoiceStatus/quoteStatus/requestStatus
• Rate limits:

- DDoS protection: 2,500 requests per 5 minutes per app/account - Query cost: Points-based using leaky bucket algorithm (max 10,000 points, restore 500/sec)

• Avoid deeply nested queries to reduce query cost
• 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

GraphQL errors appear in the response body:

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "Error description",
      "locations": [...],
      "path": [...]
    }
  ]
}

Mutation errors appear in userErrors:

{
  "data": {
    "clientCreate": {
      "client": null,
      "userErrors": [
        {
          "message": "Email is required",
          "path": ["input", "email"]
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

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://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))
EOF

Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name

1. Ensure your URL path starts with jobber. For example:

• Correct: https://api.maton.ai/jobber/graphql
• Incorrect: https://api.maton.ai/graphql
