Description


name: zohoprojects description: | Zoho Projects API integration with managed OAuth. Manage projects, tasks, milestones, tasklists, and team collaboration. Use this skill when users want to manage project tasks, track time, organize milestones, or collaborate on projects. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway). compatibility: Requires network access and valid Maton API key metadata: author: maton version: "1.0" clawdbot: emoji: homepage: "https://maton.ai" requires: env: - MATON_API_KEY

Zoho Projects

Access the Zoho Projects API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage projects, tasks, milestones, tasklists, and team collaboration.

Quick Start

# List all portals
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-projects/restapi/portals/')
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/zoho-projects/{native-api-path}

Replace {native-api-path} with the actual Zoho Projects API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to projectsapi.zoho.com and automatically injects your OAuth 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

  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 Zoho Projects 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=zoho-projects&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': 'zoho-projects'}).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": "522c11a9-b879-4504-b267-355e3dbac99f",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2026-02-28T00:12:25.223434Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-02-28T00:16:32.882675Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "zoho-projects",
    "metadata": {},
    "method": "OAUTH2"
  }
}

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 Zoho Projects 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/zoho-projects/restapi/portals/')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '522c11a9-b879-4504-b267-355e3dbac99f')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

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

Code Examples

JavaScript

// List tasks in a project
const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-projects/restapi/portal/916020774/projects/2644874000000089119/tasks/',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data.tasks);

Python

import os
import requests

# Create a task
response = requests.post(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-projects/restapi/portal/916020774/projects/2644874000000089119/tasks/',
    headers={
        'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}',
        'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
    },
    data={'name': 'New Task', 'priority': 'High'}
)
task = response.json()
print(task['tasks'][0]['id'])

Notes

  • All POST requests for create/update use application/x-www-form-urlencoded content type, not JSON
  • Portal ID is required for most endpoints and can be obtained from GET /restapi/portals/
  • Date format is MM-dd-yyyy (e.g., 03-01-2026)
  • Milestone creation requires all fields: name, start_date, end_date, owner, flag
  • Empty list responses return HTTP 204 No Content
  • Deleted items are moved to trash, not permanently deleted

Error Handling

Status Meaning
204 No content (empty list)
400 Missing/invalid input parameter
401 Invalid or missing Maton API key
404 Resource not found
429 Rate limited (100 requests per 2 minutes)
4xx/5xx Passthrough error from Zoho Projects API

Common error codes:

  • 6831: Input Parameter Missing
  • 6832: Input Parameter Does not Match the Pattern Specified

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://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 zoho-projects. For example:

  • Correct: https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-projects/restapi/portals/
  • Incorrect: https://gateway.maton.ai/restapi/portals/
