TickTick
Access the TickTick API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage tasks and projects with full CRUD operations.
Quick Start
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/ticktick/open/v1/project')
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/ticktick/{native-api-path}
The gateway proxies requests to api.ticktick.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
- Sign in or create an account at maton.ai
- Go to maton.ai/settings
- Copy your API key
Connection Management
Manage your TickTick 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=ticktick&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': 'ticktick'}).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": "1fd9c3aa-6b46-456f-aa21-ed154de23ab7",
"status": "ACTIVE",
"creation_time": "2026-02-07T09:55:40.786711Z",
"last_updated_time": "2026-02-07T09:56:30.403237Z",
"url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
"app": "ticktick",
"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 TickTick 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/ticktick/open/v1/project')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '1fd9c3aa-6b46-456f-aa21-ed154de23ab7')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF
If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

Notes
- The Open API provides access to tasks and projects only
- Habits, focus/pomodoro, and tags are not available through the Open API
- Task
status values: 0 = Active, 2 = Completed
- Priority values: 0 = None, 1 = Low, 3 = Medium, 5 = High
- Dates use ISO 8601 format with timezone offset (e.g.,
2026-02-15T10:00:00+0000)
viewMode for projects: list, kanban, or timeline
- The
columns field in project data is used for Kanban board columns
- 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 TickTick connection or invalid request |
| 401 | Invalid or missing Maton API key |
| 404 | Resource not found |
| 429 | Rate limited |
| 4xx/5xx | Passthrough error from TickTick API |
Troubleshooting: API Key Issues
- Check that the
MATON_API_KEY environment 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://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
ticktick. For example:
- Correct:
https://gateway.maton.ai/ticktick/open/v1/project
- Incorrect:
https://gateway.maton.ai/open/v1/project
