--- name: baserow description: | Baserow API integration with managed API key authentication. Manage database rows, fields, and tables. Use this skill when users want to read, create, update, or delete Baserow database rows, or query data with filters. 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 --- # Baserow Access the Baserow API with managed API key authentication. Manage database rows with full CRUD operations, filtering, sorting, and batch operations. ## Quick Start ```bash # List rows from a table python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/baserow/api/database/rows/table/{table_id}/?user_field_names=true') 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/baserow/{native-api-path} ``` Maton proxies requests to `api.baserow.io` and automatically injects your API 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`: ```bash export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY" ``` ### Getting Your API Key 1. Sign in or create an account at [maton.ai](https://maton.ai) 2. Go to [maton.ai/settings](https://maton.ai/settings) 3. Copy your API key ## Connection Management Manage your Baserow API key connections at `https://api.maton.ai`. ### List Connections ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections?app=baserow&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 ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json data = json.dumps({'app': 'baserow'}).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 ```bash 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:** ```json { "connection": { "connection_id": "{connection_id}", "status": "ACTIVE", "creation_time": "2026-03-02T12:01:29.812801Z", "last_updated_time": "2026-03-02T12:02:17.932675Z", "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...", "app": "baserow", "metadata": {}, "method": "API_KEY" } } ``` Open the returned `url` in a browser to enter your Baserow database token. ### Delete Connection ```bash 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 Baserow connections, specify which one to use with the `Maton-Connection` header: ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/baserow/api/database/rows/table/123/') 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 database rows, fields, and tables within the connected Baserow 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. ## API Reference ### Rows #### List Rows ```bash GET /baserow/api/database/rows/table/{table_id}/ ``` Query parameters: -

Pagination Use `size` and `page` parameters: ```bash GET /baserow/api/database/rows/table/{table_id}/?size=25&page=2 ``` Response includes `next` and `previous` URLs: ```json { "count": 100, "next": "http://api.baserow.io/api/database/rows/table/123/?page=3&size=25", "previous": "http://api.baserow.io/api/database/rows/table/123/?page=1&size=25", "results": [...] } ``` ## Code Examples ### JavaScript ```javascript // List rows with user field names const response = await fetch( 'https://api.maton.ai/baserow/api/database/rows/table/863922/?user_field_names=true', { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}` } } ); const data = await response.json(); console.log(data.results); ``` ### Python ```python import os import requests # Create a row response = requests.post( 'https://api.maton.ai/baserow/api/database/rows/table/863922/?user_field_names=true', headers={ 'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, json={ 'Assignee Name': 'New User', 'Email': '[REDACTED_SECRET]' } ) row = response.json() print(f"Created row ID: {row['id']}") ``` ## Notes - Connection uses API_KEY authentication (database token), not OAuth - By default, fields are returned as `field_{id}` format; use `user_field_names=true` for human-readable names - Row IDs are integers (not strings like Airtable's `recXXX` format) - Table IDs can be found in the Baserow UI URL or API documentation - Database tokens grant access only to database row endpoints, not admin endpoints - Cloud version has a limit of 10 concurrent API requests ## Error Handling | Status | Name | Description | |--------|------|-------------| | 200 | Ok | Request completed successfully | | 204 | No Content | Success (for DELETE operations) | | 400 | Bad Request | The request contains invalid values or the JSON could not be parsed | | 401 | Unauthorized | Invalid or missing database token | | 404 | Not Found | Row or table not found | | 413 | Request Entity Too Large | The request exceeded the maximum allowed payload size | | 429 | Too Many Requests | Rate limited (10 concurrent requests on cloud) | | 500 | Internal Server Error | The server encountered an unexpected condition | | 502 | Bad Gateway | Baserow is restarting or an unexpected outage is in progress | | 503 | Service Unavailable | The server could not process your request in time | ### Troubleshooting: API Key Issues 1. Check that the `MATON_API_KEY` environment variable is set: ```bash echo $MATON_API_KEY ``` 2. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections: ```bash 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 Ensure your URL path starts with `baserow`. For example: - Correct: `https://api.maton.ai/baserow/api/database/rows/table/{table_id}/` - Incorrect: `https://api.maton.ai/api/database/rows/table/{table_id}/` ## Resources - [Baserow API Documentation](https://baserow.io/api-docs) - [Baserow Database API](https://baserow.io/user-docs/database-api) - [Baserow API Spec (OpenAPI)](https://api.baserow.io/api/redoc/) - [Database Tokens](https://baserow.io/user-docs/personal-api-tokens) - [Maton Community](https://discord.com/invite/dBfFAcefs2) - [Maton Support](mailto:[REDACTED_SECRET])
