Changelog #7

Python SDK Ergonomic Improvement and non-SDK Snippets in API Portal

Python SDK Ergonomic Improvement​

We improved the Python SDK to return Pydantic-based response values which allows for using the __getattr__. This is slightly more concise than the previous version, which used the __getitem__ syntax to access response values.

Before​

Previously, you had to use the [] syntax to access response values. This required a little more code for every property access.

After​

With Pydantic-based response values, you can use the . syntax to access. This is slightly less verbose and looks more Pythonic.

Notice how there is also no need to use the body attribute to access the response body. All new Python SDKs will be using this new syntax.

We will not be updating previously generated Python SDKs to use this new syntax to ensure backwards compatibility.

Non-SDK Snippets in API Portal

Example of generated snippet for using cURL

The API Reference page now generates non-SDK code snippets for cURL and other languages that do not have an SDK. This allows developers to quickly generate, copym and paste code snippets regardless of whether or not there is an SDK for your language.
