Programatically control Airbyte Cloud through an API.

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:
    # handle response
    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 error. If Error objects are specified in your OpenAPI Spec, the SDK will raise the appropriate Error type.

Error Object 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:
    # handle exception
    raise(e)

if res.connection_response is not None:
    # handle response
    pass

Server Selection

Select Server by Index

You can override the default server globally by passing a server index to the server_idx: int optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected server will then be used as the default on the operations that use it. This table lists the indexes associated with the available servers:

# Server Variables
0 https://api.airbyte.com/v1 None

Example

import airbyte_api
from airbyte_api import models

s = airbyte_api.AirbyteAPI(
    server_idx=0,
    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:
    # handle response
    pass

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:
    # handle response
    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:
    # handle response
    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 !
