Twilio

Twilio API integration with managed OAuth. SMS, voice calls, phone numbers, and communications. Use this skill when users want to send SMS messages, make voice calls, manage phone numbers, or work with Twilio resources. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway). Requires network access and valid Maton API key.

התקנה
$clawhub install twilio-api

Twilio

Access the Twilio API with managed OAuth authentication. Send SMS messages, make voice calls, manage phone numbers, and work with Twilio resources.

Quick Start

# List all accounts
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/twilio/2010-04-01/Accounts.json')
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/twilio/2010-04-01/Accounts/{AccountSid}/{resource}.json

The gateway proxies requests to api.twilio.com and automatically injects your OAuth token.

Important: Most Twilio endpoints require your Account SID in the path. You can get your Account SID from the /Accounts.json endpoint.

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 Twilio 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=twilio&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': 'twilio'}).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: json { "connection": { "connection_id": "ebe566b1-3eaf-4926-bc92-0d8d47445f12", "status": "ACTIVE", "creation_time": "2026-02-09T23:18:44.243582Z", "last_updated_time": "2026-02-09T23:19:55.176687Z", "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...", "app": "twilio", "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 Twilio 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/twilio/2010-04-01/Accounts.json')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', 'ebe566b1-3eaf-4926-bc92-0d8d47445f12')
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

const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/twilio/2010-04-01/Accounts.json',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();
const accountSid = data.accounts[0].sid;
console.log(`Account SID: ${accountSid}`);

Python

import os
import requests

# Get account SID
response = requests.get(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/twilio/2010-04-01/Accounts.json',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'}
)
account_sid = response.json()['accounts'][0]['sid']
print(f"Account SID: {account_sid}")

Python (Send SMS)

import os
import requests

account_sid = 'ACxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

response = requests.post(
    f'https://gateway.maton.ai/twilio/2010-04-01/Accounts/{account_sid}/Messages.json',
    headers={
        'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}',

        'Body': 'Hello from Python!'
    }
)
message = response.json()
print(f"Message SID: {message['sid']}")
print(f"Status: {message['status']}")

Python (Make Call)

import os
import requests

account_sid = 'ACxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

response = requests.post(
    f'https://gateway.maton.ai/twilio/2010-04-01/Accounts/{account_sid}/Calls.json',
    headers={

call = response.json()
print(f"Call SID: {call['sid']}")
print(f"Status: {call['status']}")

Notes

  • All endpoints require the /2010-04-01/ API version prefix
  • Most endpoints require your Account SID in the path
  • Request bodies use application/x-www-form-urlencoded format (not JSON)
  • Phone numbers must be in E.164 format (+15551234567)
  • SIDs are unique identifiers:
    • Account SIDs start with AC
    • Message SIDs start with SM (SMS) or MM (MMS)
    • Call SIDs start with CA
    • Phone Number SIDs start with PN
    • Application SIDs start with AP
    • Queue SIDs start with QU
  • POST is used for both creating and updating resources
  • DELETE returns 204 No Content on success
  • 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

Status Meaning
400 Missing Twilio connection or bad request
401 Invalid or missing Maton API key
404 Resource not found
429 Rate limited
4xx/5xx Passthrough error from Twilio API

Twilio error responses include: json { "code": 20404, "message": "The requested resource was not found", "more_info": "https://www.twilio.com/docs/errors/20404", "status": 404 }

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
