Authentication
Developers will need to create an API Key within your Developer Portal to make API requests. You can use your existing Airbyte account to log in to the Developer Portal. Once you are in the Developer Portal, use the API Keys tab to create or remove API Keys. You can see a walkthrough demo here🎦
The Developer Portal UI can also be used to help build your integration by showing information about network requests in the Requests tab. API usage information is also available to you in the Usage tab.

SDK Installation
The SDK can be installed using the pip package manager, with dependencies and metadata stored in the setup.py
file.
pip install airbyte-api
SDK Example Usage
Example
import airbyte_api
from airbyte_api import models
s = airbyte_api.AirbyteAPI(
security=models.Security(
basic_auth=models.SchemeBasicAuth(
password='',
username='',
),
),
)
res = s.connections.create_connection(request=models.ConnectionCreateRequest(
destination_id='e478de0d-a3a0-475c-b019-25f7dd29e281',
source_id='95e66a59-8045-4307-9678-63bc3c9b8c93',
name='Postgres-to-Bigquery',
namespace_format='${SOURCE_NAMESPACE}',
))
if res.connection_response is not None:
pass
Available Resources and Operations
Available methods
Error Handling
Handling errors in this SDK should largely match your expectations. All operations return a response object or raise an exception.
By default, an API error will raise a errors.SDKError exception, which has the following properties:
Property | Type | Description |
---|
.status_code | int | The HTTP status code |
.message | str | The error message |
.raw_response | httpx.Response | The raw HTTP response |
.body | str | The response content |
When custom error responses are specified for an operation, the SDK may also raise their associated exception. You can refer to respective Errors tables in SDK docs for more details on possible exception types for each operation. For example, the create_connection
method may raise the following exceptions:
Error Type | Status Code | Content Type |
---|
errors.SDKError | 4XX, 5XX | */* |
Example
import airbyte_api
from airbyte_api import errors, models
s = airbyte_api.AirbyteAPI(
security=models.Security(
basic_auth=models.SchemeBasicAuth(
password='',
username='',
),
),
)
res = None
try:
res = s.connections.create_connection(request=models.ConnectionCreateRequest(
destination_id='e478de0d-a3a0-475c-b019-25f7dd29e281',
source_id='95e66a59-8045-4307-9678-63bc3c9b8c93',
name='Postgres-to-Bigquery',
namespace_format='${SOURCE_NAMESPACE}',
))
except errors.SDKError as e:
raise(e)
if res.connection_response is not None:
pass
Server Selection
Override Server URL Per-Client
The default server can also be overridden globally by passing a URL to the server_url: str
optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:
import airbyte_api
from airbyte_api import models
s = airbyte_api.AirbyteAPI(
server_url='https://api.airbyte.com/v1',
security=models.Security(
basic_auth=models.SchemeBasicAuth(
password='',
username='',
),
),
)
res = s.connections.create_connection(request=models.ConnectionCreateRequest(
destination_id='e478de0d-a3a0-475c-b019-25f7dd29e281',
source_id='95e66a59-8045-4307-9678-63bc3c9b8c93',
name='Postgres-to-Bigquery',
namespace_format='${SOURCE_NAMESPACE}',
))
if res.connection_response is not None:
pass
Custom HTTP Client
The Python SDK makes API calls using the requests HTTP library. In order to provide a convenient way to configure timeouts, cookies, proxies, custom headers, and other low-level configuration, you can initialize the SDK client with a custom requests.Session
object.
For example, you could specify a header for every request that this sdk makes as follows:
import airbyte_api
import requests
http_client = requests.Session()
http_client.headers.update({'x-custom-header': 'someValue'})
s = airbyte_api.AirbyteAPI(client=http_client)
Authentication
Per-Client Security Schemes
This SDK supports the following security schemes globally:
Name | Type | Scheme |
---|
basic_auth | http | HTTP Basic |
bearer_auth | http | HTTP Bearer |
client_credentials | oauth2 | OAuth2 token |
You can set the security parameters through the security
optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected scheme will be used by default to authenticate with the API for all operations that support it. For example:
import airbyte_api
from airbyte_api import models
s = airbyte_api.AirbyteAPI(
security=models.Security(
basic_auth=models.SchemeBasicAuth(
password='',
username='',
),
),
)
res = s.connections.create_connection(request=models.ConnectionCreateRequest(
destination_id='e478de0d-a3a0-475c-b019-25f7dd29e281',
source_id='95e66a59-8045-4307-9678-63bc3c9b8c93',
name='Postgres-to-Bigquery',
namespace_format='${SOURCE_NAMESPACE}',
))
if res.connection_response is not None:
pass
Maturity
This SDK is in beta, and there may be breaking changes between versions without a major version update. Therefore, we recommend pinning usage
to a specific package version. This way, you can install the same version each time without breaking changes unless you are intentionally
looking for the latest version.
Contributions
While we value open-source contributions to this SDK, this library is generated programmatically.
Feel free to open a PR or a Github issue as a proof of concept and we'll do our best to include it in a future release !
