# Google Meet
Access the Google Meet API with managed OAuth authentication. Create and manage meeting spaces, list conference records, and retrieve participant information.
## Quick Start
```bash
# Create a meeting space
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/google-meet/v2/spaces', 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
```
## Base URL
```
https://api.maton.ai/google-meet/{native-api-path}
```
Maton proxies requests to `meet.googleapis.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`:
```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 Google OAuth 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=google-meet&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': 'google-meet'}).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": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z",
"last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z",
"url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
"app": "google-meet",
"metadata": {}
}
}
```
Open the returned `url` in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.
### 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 Google Meet connections, specify which one to use with the `Maton-Connection` header:
```bash
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/google-meet/v2/spaces', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
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 conference rooms, spaces, and meeting records within the connected Google Meet 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

## Code Examples
### JavaScript
```javascript
// Create a meeting space
const response = await fetch(
'https://api.maton.ai/google-meet/v2/spaces',
{
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
},
body: JSON.stringify({})
}
);
const space = await response.json();
console.log(`Meeting URL: ${space.meetingUri}`);
```
### Python
```python
import os
import requests
headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'
}
# Create a meeting space
response = requests.post(
'https://api.maton.ai/google-meet/v2/spaces',
headers=headers,
json={}
)
space = response.json()
print(f"Meeting URL: {space['meetingUri']}")
```
## Notes
- Spaces are persistent meeting rooms that can be reused
- Conference records are created when a meeting starts and track meeting history
- Access types: `OPEN` (anyone with link), `TRUSTED` (organization members only), `RESTRICTED` (invited only)
- Recordings and transcripts require Google Workspace with recording enabled
- IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use `curl -g` when URLs contain brackets to disable glob parsing
- IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to `jq` or other commands, environment variables like `$MATON_API_KEY` may not expand correctly in some shell environments. You may get "Invalid API key" errors when piping.
## Error Handling
| Status | Meaning |
|--------|---------|
| 400 | Missing Google Meet connection |
| 401 | Invalid or missing Maton API key |
| 429 | Rate limited (10 req/sec per account) |
| 4xx/5xx | Passthrough error from Google Meet API |
### Troubleshooting: Invalid API Key
**When you receive a "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:
```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
1. Ensure your URL path starts with `google-meet`. For example:
- Correct: `https://api.maton.ai/google-meet/v2/spaces`
- Incorrect: `https://api.maton.ai/meet/v2/spaces`
