Getting Started with Shell Card Management APIs

Introduction

The Shell Card Management API is REST-based and employs OAUTH 2.0,Basic and ApiKey authentication. The API endpoints accept JSON-encoded request bodies, return JSON-encoded responses and use standard HTTP response codes.
All resources are located in the Shell Card Platform. The Shell Card Platform is the overall platform that encompasses all the internal Shell systems used to manage resources. The internal workings of the platform are not important when interacting with the API. However, it is worth noting that the platform uses a microservice architecture to communicate with various backend systems and some API calls are processed asynchronously. All endpoints use the POST verb for retrieving, updating, creating and deleting resources in the Shell Card Platform. The endpoints that retrieve resources from the Shell Card Platform allow flexible search parameters in the API request body.

Install the Package

The package is compatible with Python versions 3.7+. Install the package from PyPi using the following pip command:

pip install card-management-sdk==1.4.0

You can also view the package at: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/card-management-sdk/1.4.0

Initialize the API Client

Note: Documentation for the client can be found here.

The following parameters are configurable for the API Client:

Parameter	Type	Description
environment	Environment	The API environment. Default: Environment.SIT
http_client_instance	HttpClient	The Http Client passed from the sdk user for making requests
override_http_client_configuration	bool	The value which determines to override properties of the passed Http Client from the sdk user
http_call_back	HttpCallBack	The callback value that is invoked before and after an HTTP call is made to an endpoint
timeout	float	The value to use for connection timeout. Default: 60
max_retries	int	The number of times to retry an endpoint call if it fails. Default: 0
backoff_factor	float	A backoff factor to apply between attempts after the second try. Default: 2
retry_statuses	Array of int	The http statuses on which retry is to be done. Default: [408, 413, 429, 500, 502, 503, 504, 521, 522, 524]
retry_methods	Array of string	The http methods on which retry is to be done. Default: ['GET', 'PUT']
basic_auth_credentials	BasicAuthCredentials	The credential object for Basic Authentication
bearer_token_credentials	BearerTokenCredentials	The credential object for OAuth 2 Client Credentials Grant

The API client can be initialized as follows:

client = ShellcardmanagementapisClient(
    basic_auth_credentials=BasicAuthCredentials(
        username='Username',
        password='Password'
    ),
    bearer_token_credentials=BearerTokenCredentials(
        o_auth_client_id='OAuthClientId',
        o_auth_client_secret='OAuthClientSecret'
    ),
    environment=Environment.SIT
)

Environments

The SDK can be configured to use a different environment for making API calls. Available environments are:
