API overview

The API is an interface that allows users to interact programmatically with the Matillion Data Productivity Cloud.

The API follows a RESTful architecture, which is characterized by several key attributes:

  • A resource based URL format.
  • When interacting with the API use form encoded data.
  • Response from the API is in JSON format.
  • The Matillion API uses HTTP response codes.
  • The API employs standard authentication methods, including the use of bearer tokens, to secure access. It also follows standard HTTP verbs (e.g. GET, POST, PATCH, and DELETE) for consistent and familiar interaction with the API.
