Note: You may need to use python3 before your commands to ensure you use the correct Python path. e.g. python3 --version

python --version

-- or --

python3 --version

Usage

• See examples.py for full usage and examples
• Retrieve your Client id/secret from your Knowi account
  • Navigate to Settings -> Account Settings https://recordit.co/HAudn0LJ2E

from knowipy import Knowi
import os

# instantiate the client
knowi = Knowi(clientId=os.environ['KNOWI_CLIENT_ID'], clientSecret=os.environ['KNOWI_CLIENT_SECRET'])

# note: for on-prem deployments set the `host=<knowi_server_ip>` variable
knowi = Knowi(clientId=os.environ['KNOWI_CLIENT_ID'], clientSecret=os.environ['KNOWI_CLIENT_SECRET'],
              host="≤knowi_server_ip>")

# get a list of dashboards
dashboard_list = knowi.dashboard_list()

# to refresh an existing query
query_refresh = knowi.query_refresh(queryId=1231)

 $ git clone https://github.com/ezeagwulae/knowi-python-sdk.git
    $ cd knowipy
    $ virtualenv venv
    ...
    $ . venv/bin/activate
    $ pip install -r requirements.txt
    $ pip install -e .
