Kelvin API Client (Python) Overview

The Kelvin SDK includes several specialized libraries but does not expose every feature available on the Kelvin Platform.

The Kelvin API Client (Python) provides a unified Python interface for accessing all platform endpoints through standard Python scripts.

Note

There is also a builtin KelvinApp method for accessing the Kelvin API endpoints.

You can read all the documentation on this method in the Develop Kelvin SmartApps™ page here.

Installation

The Kelvin API Client (Python) can be installed separately or with the full Kelvin SDK package.

Note

When you install the kelvin-sdk library, it will also install the kelvin-python-api-client for Python programming.

Install the API client library.

pip install kelvin-python-api-client

Using API Client

You can call any API request using the standard login protocols using a normal user account.

Warning

It is strongly recommended that you use secrets to avoid exposing your credentials in your code.
