Advanced tools
Sym <https://symops.com/>_ is the security workflow platform made for engineers, by engineers.
We solve the intent-to-execution gap between policies and workflows by providing fast-moving engineering teams with the just-right primitives to roll out best-practice controls.
This is the Python SDK for Sym.
For guides and other help, check out our main docs site <https://docs.symops.com/>_.
The SDK docs are broken into several core modules, which are described below.
Click on one to see the classes and functions available in your Handlers <https://docs.symops.com/docs/workflow-handlers>_.
The Sym SDK is used to customize workflow templates that are exposed by our Terraform provider <https://registry.terraform.io/providers/symopsio/sym/latest/docs>_. Here's an example using the sym:approve Template!
.. code-block:: python
from sym.sdk.annotations import reducer from sym.sdk.integrations import pagerduty, okta, slack
@reducer def get_approvers(evt): # The import here uses credentials defined in an Integration in Terraform if pagerduty.is_on_call(evt.user, schedule="id_of_eng_on_call"): # This is a self-approval in a DM return slack.user(evt.user)
if evt.payload.fields["urgency"] == "Emergency":
# This is a self-approval in a channel
return slack.channel("#break-glass", allow_self=True)
on_call_mgrs = okta.group("OnCallManagers").members()
# This would cause each on-call manager to be DMed
return slack.group([slack.user(x) for x in on_call_mgrs])
