Sample input
I need to make an API call to list my Mailtrap contact lists. How should I set up the auth headers and the account ID in the URL?
Sample output
To list contact lists, use the account-scoped endpoint.
- Fetch your ID:
export MAILTRAP_ACCOUNT_ID=$(curl -s https://mailtrap.io/api/accounts -H "Authorization: Bearer $MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN" | jq '.[0].id') - Request:
GET https://mailtrap.io/api/accounts/$MAILTRAP_ACCOUNT_ID/contacts/lists

About This Skill
A reference skill for any agent working with the Mailtrap API. Covers the two accepted auth header formats (Bearer and Api-Token), how to scope tokens to the minimum required surface (transactional, bulk, sandbox, account-level), where to store tokens safely across environments (local dev, CI, production), and a one-liner to resolve account_id dynamically so it never gets hardcoded. Includes a common-mistakes table covering the most frequent auth failures.
Use Cases
- Securely manage API tokens for production, staging, and sandbox environments.
- Dynamically resolve account_id to prevent hardcoding in multi-tenant setups.
- Identify the correct token scope for Email Sending vs. Email Testing.
- Setting up auth before writing any Mailtrap API call
Known Limitations
- Does not support SMTP AUTH (API only).
- Token scopes cannot be modified after creation: must delete and recreate.
- No automatic account switching for multi-org users.
