Python API

Manage user API keys

At https://accsyn.io/developer, your API key for each accsyn workspace are listed. Delete an API key by clicking the trashcan icon on the right hand side of each entry.

Manage workspace API keys (administrators)

API keys for each user can be managed from https://accsyn.io/admin/users (Workspace button > Users):

• Click on the user you want to manage.

• Go to API keys tab.

• Here you will see all active API keys for that particular user.

• Delete an API key by clicking the trashcan icon on the right hand side of each entry.

We recommend setting up and activating a virtual environment for development,  pyenv is a fluid tool for creating and managing Python envs.

PIP

This is the default and recommended way to install the accsyn Python API with dependencies:

• Install Python 3.8 or higher

• Make sure pip is installed.

• Install using pip:

pip install accsyn-python-api

Poetry

• Download the source code from Github (see link below).

• Install with Poetru:

poetry install

From source

• Download the source code from Github (see link below).

• Copy the "accsyn_api" from within the "source" folder to your PYTHONPATH.

• Install dependencies: requests

Create a new API session

session = accsyn_api.Session(workspace='acmefilm',username='john@user.com', api_key='BlrPCfxLIRZEdhL6LXotwXRmDWbPRsPgLYcpa7ubyu97gxpqSC4130Adfh968Low')

Example - download a file

job = session.create("job",{"source":"volume=projects/A001_C064_09224Y_001.mp4","destination":"client=664f53b16aa9149860da9d9c:/tmp/A001_C064_09224Y_001.mp4"})

Note: the accsyn API does not run any file transfers itself, it can only queue file transfers that then gets resolved and dispatched to the involved server and client p2p endpoints.
