$ pip install strongdm
strongDM uses semantic versioning. We do not guarantee compatibility between major versions. Be sure to use version constraints to pin your dependency to the desired major version of the strongDM SDK.
If you don't already have them you will need to generate a set of API keys, instructions are here: API Credentials
Add the keys as environment variables; the SDK will need to access these keys for every request.
$ export SDM_API_ACCESS_KEY=<YOUR ACCESS KEY>
$ export SDM_API_SECRET_KEY=<YOUR SECRET KEY>
The following code lists all registered users:
import os
import strongdm
def main():
client = strongdm.Client(os.getenv("SDM_API_ACCESS_KEY"),
os.getenv("SDM_API_SECRET_KEY"))
users = client.accounts.list('')
for user in users:
print(user)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
