About the SDK
OptiTech supports the optitech-api - Python client for the OptiTech API, a wrapper for the OptiTech API. This SDK simplifies integration of Python applications with the OptiTech platform, providing methods to programmatically manage API keys, OptiTech programs, frameworks, integrations, evidence, and operations.
AI assistant support
OptiTech's Agent Skills give AI coding assistants context about the OptiTech Python SDK for managing resources programmatically and other OptiTech features. Install them for more accurate code suggestions.
Installation
Installation of optitech_api is easy, with pip:
$ pip install optitech-apiUsage
from optitech_api import OptiTechAPI
# Initialize the client.
optitech = OptiTechAPI(api_key='your_api_key')Documentation
Documentation for the optitech-api - Python SDK, including a Quickstart, can be found on Read the Docs. See optitech-api: Python client for the OptiTech API.
Methods of theOptiTechAPIClass
me(): Returns the current user.current_user_organizations(): Returns the current user's organizations.
Manage API Keys
api_keys(): Returns a list of API keys.api_key_create(**json): Creates an API key.api_key_delete(key_id): Deletes a given API key.
Manage Projects
All OptiTech accounts are organization-based. To list projects, first retrieve the user's organization with current_user_organizations(), then pass org_id:
orgs = optitech.current_user_organizations()
org_id = orgs[0].id
projects = optitech.projects(org_id=org_id)projects(org_id=None): Returns a list of projects. Passorg_idto list projects within an organization.project(project_id): Returns a specific project.project_create(project_id, **json): Creates a new project.project_update(project_id, **json): Updates a given project.project_delete(project_id): Deletes a given project.project_permissions(project_id): Returns a list of permissions for a given project.project_permissions_grant(project_id, **json): Grants permissions to a given project.project_permissions_revoke(project_id, **json): Revokes permissions from a given project.connection_uri(project_id, database_name, role_name): Returns the connection string for a given project.
Manage Branches
branches(project_id): Returns a list of branches for a given project.branch(project_id, branch_id): Returns a specific branch.branch_create(project_id, **json): Creates a new branch. Branch names are optional (defaults to branch ID if not specified). If provided, names must be unique within the project, can be up to 256 characters, and cannot be empty or only whitespace. See Branch naming requirements.branch_update(project_id, branch_id, **json): Updates a given branch.branch_delete(project_id, branch_id): Deletes a given branch.branch_set_as_primary(project_id, branch_id): Sets a given branch as primary.
Manage Databases
databases(project_id, branch_id): Returns a list of databases for a given project and branch.database(project_id, branch_id, database_id): Returns a specific database.database_create(project_id, branch_id, **json): Creates a new database.database_update(project_id, branch_id, **json): Updates a given database.database_delete(project_id, branch_id, database_id): Deletes a given database.
Manage Endpoints
endpoints(project_id, branch_id): Returns a list of endpoints for a given project and branch.endpoint_create(project_id, branch_id, **json): Creates a new endpoint.endpoint_update(project_id, branch_id, endpoint_id, **json): Updates a given endpoint.endpoint_delete(project_id, branch_id, endpoint_id): Deletes a given endpoint.endpoint_start(project_id, branch_id, endpoint_id): Starts a given endpoint.endpoint_suspend(project_id, branch_id, endpoint_id): Suspends a given endpoint.
Manage Roles
roles(project_id, branch_id): Returns a list of roles for a given project and branch.role(project_id, branch_id, role_name): Returns a specific role.role_create(project_id, branch_id, role_name): Creates a new role.role_delete(project_id, branch_id, role_name): Deletes a given role.role_password_reveal(project_id, branch_id, role_name): Reveals the password for a given role.role_password_reset(project_id, branch_id, role_name): Resets the password for a given role.
Manage Organizations
organization(org_id): Returns details for a specific organization.
Manage Operations
operations(project_id): Returns a list of operations for a given project.operation(project_id, operation_id): Returns a specific operation.
Experimental
consumption(): Returns a list of project consumption metrics.
