americancloud 1.3.1

Official Python SDK for the American Cloud Platform API.

American Cloud Python SDK

Typed Python client for the American Cloud public API.

This SDK is auto-generated from the OpenAPI specification using Fern. It targets American Cloud API v1 — see VERSIONING.md for how SDK releases track the API.

Installation

pip install americancloud

Authentication

Every request requires both parts of an American Cloud API key, sent as headers:

Header	SDK option
X-API-Client-ID	api_key
X-API-Client-Secret	api_client_secret

Create and manage keys at console.americancloud.com/api-keys. The client secret is shown once at creation — store it securely. If lost, revoke the key and create a new one.

Each key is scoped at creation:

• read-only — GET endpoints only
• read-write — full access to all resource management endpoints

Quick start

Synchronous

import os
from americancloud import AmericancloudApi

client = AmericancloudApi(
    api_key=os.environ["AMERICANCLOUD_API_CLIENT_ID"],
    api_client_secret=os.environ["AMERICANCLOUD_API_CLIENT_SECRET"],
)

vms = client.vms.list_vms()
print(vms)

Asynchronous

import asyncio
import os
from americancloud import AsyncAmericancloudApi

async def main():
    client = AsyncAmericancloudApi(
        api_key=os.environ["AMERICANCLOUD_API_CLIENT_ID"],
        api_client_secret=os.environ["AMERICANCLOUD_API_CLIENT_SECRET"],
    )
    vms = await client.vms.list_vms()
    print(vms)

asyncio.run(main())

The client is namespaced by resource — client.vms, client.block_storage, client.kubernetes, client.dns_zones, etc.

API endpoint

The SDK targets the American Cloud production API at https://api.americancloud.com by default. To override (e.g. for a self-hosted or internal environment), pass base_url:

client = AmericancloudApi(
    api_key="...",
    api_client_secret="...",
    base_url="https://your-custom-endpoint.example.com",
)

Versioning

The SDK version matches the API platform version it was generated from — SDK x.y.z is generated from OpenAPI document x.y.z, so the SDK↔API mapping is one-to-one by construction:

• Patch / minor releases are backward-compatible — safe to upgrade.
• Major releases track a new API URL version (/api/v2) and may require code changes; check the CHANGELOG first.
• The 1.x line targets API v1, which remains available for at least six months after a v2 release.
• Additive API changes (new endpoints, optional fields, enum values) ship within a version — tolerate unknown fields and new enum values gracefully.

See VERSIONING.md for the full policy.
