Quickstart

Before you begin

1. Register with Business Messages.
2. Once registered, follow the instructions to enable the APIs for your project.

Installation

Install this library in a virtualenv using pip. virtualenv is a tool to create isolated Python environments. The basic problem it addresses is one of dependencies and versions, and indirectly permissions.

With virtualenv, it's possible to install this library without needing system install permissions, and without clashing with the installed system dependencies.

Mac/Linux

pip install virtualenv
python -m venv <your-env>
source <your-env>/bin/activate
<your-env>/bin/pip install

Windows

pip install virtualenv
python -m venv <your-env>
<your-env>\Scripts\activate
<your-env>\Scripts\pip.exe install

Using the client library

from oauth2client.service_account import ServiceAccountCredentials
from businesscommunications.businesscommunications_v1_client import BusinesscommunicationsV1
from businesscommunications.businesscommunications_v1_messages import (
    Brand)

SCOPES = ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/businesscommunications']

# Initialize the API authentication credentials
credentials = ServiceAccountCredentials.from_json_keyfile_name(
    'your-service-account-key-file-location', scopes=SCOPES)

# Create the client
client = BusinesscommunicationsV1(credentials=credentials)

# Create the service for brands
brands_service = BusinesscommunicationsV1.BrandsService(client)

# Create a new brand with the name "Test Brand" 
brand = brands_service.Create(Brand(displayName='Test Brand'))

# Print created brand object
print(brand)
