InfoLobby

Access an InfoLobby account from any agent using plain curl. No SDK.

Setup

The API key lives at ~/.infolobby/key (one line, the raw token).

On every invocation, first try to read it:

INFOLOBBY_KEY="$(cat ~/.infolobby/key 2>/dev/null)"
INFOLOBBY_API="https://infolobby.com/api"

If ~/.infolobby/key does not exist, ask the user once for their InfoLobby API key (il_live_… or il_user_…), then write it. Do not log or echo the key back.

• •macOS / Linux:

``bash mkdir -p ~/.infolobby ( umask 077 && printf '%s' "<KEY>" > ~/.infolobby/key ) ``

• •Windows (PowerShell):

```powershell

Set-Content -NoNewline "$HOME\.infolobby\key" '<KEY>' ```

Where the user gets a key:

• •Account key (il_live_…): InfoLobby → Account → API Keys. Account-owner only. Acts as the owner across all in-scope workspaces.
• •Personal key (il_user_…): InfoLobby → Profile → Personal API Keys. Acts as that user; cannot manage workspaces or table schemas.

Send the key on every request as Authorization: Bearer $INFOLOBBY_KEY.

Scope

This skill covers data work only:

• •discover: list spaces, list tables, fetch a table schema
• •records: create, get, update, delete, batch-delete, query with filters / saved views
• •comments: list, post, attach files
• •files: upload, download, delete record attachments (base64 in JSON, 50 MB cap)

This skill does not create/modify workspaces, create/modify table schemas, manage members, run flows, or touch billing. Point the user at https://infolobby.com/api-docs for those.

Workflow

Always discover before mutating:

1. GET /spaces/list → pick a space.
2. GET /space/<space_id>/tables/list → pick a table.
3. GET /table/<table_id>/get → read field id slugs from the schema. Record payloads use these slugs, not display names — a wrong key returns Unauthorized - no field edit permissions for field: X.

Cheat sheet

Query example

curl -s "$INFOLOBBY_API/table/101/records/query" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $INFOLOBBY_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "fields": ["company_name","email","status"],
    "filters": [{"column":"status","compare":"=","value":"Active"}],
    "order_by": "company_name",
    "order_dir": "A",
    "limit": 50
  }'

Pass "view_id": N to query through a saved view; the view's filters and sort replace the request's.

Create / update record example

curl -s -X POST "$INFOLOBBY_API/table/101/records/create" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $INFOLOBBY_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"data":{"company_name":"Acme","email":"[email protected]","status":"Active"}}'

data keys must be field id slugs from GET /table/<tid>/get. Update bodies are partial — include only fields to change.

Files (base64)

B64=$(base64 -w0 invoice.pdf)
curl -s -X POST "$INFOLOBBY_API/table/101/record/5/files/create" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $INFOLOBBY_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "{\"field_id\":\"attachments\",\"name\":\"invoice.pdf\",\"type\":\"application/pdf\",\"data\":\"$B64\"}"

Decoded payload must be ≤ 50 MB. Download returns base64 in data. Attachment object shape on the record is {name,path,type,size,host}. files/delete strips by (field_id, path).

Error handling

• •Non-2xx → plain text body.
• •401 → key missing/invalid/revoked; reprompt and rewrite ~/.infolobby/key.
• •403 → read-only key on a write call, or endpoint not in scope for the key type.
• •429 → respect Retry-After. X-RateLimit-* headers describe the bucket.
• •500 with Unauthorized - no field edit permissions for field: X → field slug is wrong; refetch schema.

• •references/fields.md — field-type quirks that surprise first-time callers (lookup, select, user, number, date).

Tips

• •Base URL: https://infolobby.com/api.
• •Responses are JSON for data endpoints; errors are plain text with non-2xx status.
• •Use curl -i when debugging auth or scoping issues.
• •Personal keys (il_user_…) cannot CRUD workspaces or table schemas — that is by design.
• •Never write the user's key into chat output, command history echoes, or logs.
