Usage¶
To use Python client for Degreed API in a project:
from degreedClient import DegreedApiClient
The degreed api has got various modules which this client made available, however each module requires a specific scope for that module. The scope is something similar to this: users:read it may also look like this: users_read Degreed confirmed through their documentation that all methods will be supported, well at least for now but l recommend the first method of using a colon as a dimiliter.
To be able to use Degreed’s api you will need the client_id , client_secret and also the host .The client id and client secret are given by Degreed Technical Solutions Specialist. The host has got a development host as well as production host. The hostname uses the format degreed.com and for betatest(development) it is in the format betatest.degreed.com .You get all these from Degreed. The API uses OAuth 2.0 protocol’s Client Credentials Flow, you can get more information via Degreed official documentation.
101 usage¶
from degreedClient import DegreedApiClient
import yaml
from pprint import pprint
with open('.profile.yml', 'r') as profile_yml:
config = yaml.load(profile_yml)
client = DegreedApiClient(config['host'], config['client_id'], config['client_secret'], config['scope'] )
Users Module¶
Getting started with user module¶
from degreedClient import DegreedApiClient
from pprint import pprint
client = DegreedApiClient(...)
pprint(client.users.all())
# You can also get a single user via ID as an object
# This means you can get all the user attributes
a_user = client.users.get('<ID>')
user_firstname = a_user.attributes.first_name
print(user_firstname)
