Python client for Clappia API integration

Clappia Tools

LangChain integration for Clappia API

---

Overview

Clappia Tools is a Python package that provides a unified client and a set of tools for seamless integration with the Clappia API. It enables developers to automate workflows, manage submissions, and interact with Clappia apps programmatically. The package is designed for use in automation, data integration, and agent-based systems (e.g., LangChain agents).

Features

• Unified API Client: One client for all Clappia API operations.
• Submission Management: Create, edit, update owners, and change status of submissions.
• App Definition Retrieval: Fetch complete app structure and metadata.
• Input Validation: Built-in validation for IDs, emails, and status objects.
• Extensible Tools: Modular functions for each operation, easily integrated into agents or scripts.
• Comprehensive Testing: Includes unit and integration tests.

Installation

pip install clappia-tools

Or, for development:

git clone https://github.com/clappia-dev/clappia-tools.git
cd clappia-tools
pip install -e .[dev]

---

Configuration

You must provide your Clappia API credentials and workspace information directly when initializing the ClappiaClient:

• api_key: Your Clappia API key
• base_url: The base URL for the Clappia API (e.g., https://api.clappia.com)
• workplace_id: Your Clappia workplace ID

Example:

from clappia_tools import ClappiaClient

client = ClappiaClient(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    base_url="https://api.clappia.com",
    workplace_id="your-workplace-id"
)

---

Usage

Basic Client Usage

from clappia_tools import ClappiaClient

client = ClappiaClient(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    base_url="https://api.clappia.com",
    workplace_id="your-workplace-id"
)

# Create a submission
result = client.create_submission(
    app_id="MFX093412",
    data={"employee_name": "John Doe", "department": "Engineering"},
    email="[e-mail]"
)
print(result)

# Edit a submission
result = client.edit_submission(
    app_id="MFX093412",
    submission_id="HGO51464561",
    data={"department": "Marketing"},
    email="[e-mail]"
)
print(result)

# Get app definition
result = client.get_app_definition(app_id="MFX093412")
print(result)

Tool Functions

You can also use the modular tool functions directly:

from clappia_tools._tools import (
    create_clappia_submission,
    edit_clappia_submission,
    get_app_definition,
    update_clappia_submission_owners,
    update_clappia_submission_status,
)

# Create a submission
data = {"employee_name": "Jane Doe", "department": "HR"}
response = create_clappia_submission("MFX093412", data, "[e-mail]")
print(response)

# Update submission owners
response = update_clappia_submission_owners(
    "MFX093412", "HGO51464561", "[e-mail]", ["[e-mail]", "[e-mail]"]
)
print(response)

# Update submission status
response = update_clappia_submission_status(
    "MFX093412", "HGO51464561", "[e-mail]", {"statusName": "Approved", "comments": "Reviewed."}
)
print(response)

---

Available Tools
