GetResponse

GetResponse

Access the GetResponse API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage email marketing campaigns, contacts, newsletters, autoresponders, segments, and forms.

Quick Start

# List campaigns
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/getresponse/v3/campaigns')
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://api.maton.ai/getresponse/{native-api-path}

Maton proxies requests to api.getresponse.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 GetResponse 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=getresponse&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': 'getresponse'}).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": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "getresponse",
    "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 GetResponse connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/getresponse/v3/campaigns')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
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 email marketing campaigns, contacts, newsletters, autoresponders, segments, workflows, ecommerce/shops, SMS, landing pages, webinars, transactional emails, forms, and account data within the connected GetResponse 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.
• Messaging operations (newsletters, SMS, transactional emails) deliver to real contacts. Always confirm the audience/list, message content, and send timing with the user before executing.

Pagination

Use page and perPage query parameters for pagination:

GET /getresponse/v3/contacts?page=1&perPage=100

• page - Page number (starts at 1)
• perPage - Number of records per page (max 1000)

Response headers include pagination info:

• TotalCount - Total number of records
• TotalPages - Total number of pages
• CurrentPage - Current page number

Code Examples

JavaScript

const response = await fetch(
  'https://api.maton.ai/getresponse/v3/contacts?perPage=10',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const contacts = await response.json();

Python

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://api.maton.ai/getresponse/v3/contacts',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'},
    params={'perPage': 10}
)
contacts = response.json()

Notes

• Campaign IDs and Contact IDs are alphanumeric strings
• All timestamps use ISO 8601 format (e.g., 2026-02-15T10:00:00Z)
• Field names use camelCase
• Rate limits: 30,000 requests per 10 minutes, 80 requests per second
• IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use curl -g when URLs contain brackets to disable glob parsing
• 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

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 getresponse. For example:

• Correct: https://api.maton.ai/getresponse/v3/contacts
• Incorrect: https://api.maton.ai/v3/contacts
