• 🔒 Handles authentication and request management.

📦 Installation

Install the SDK using pip:

pip install linkup-sdk

🛠️ Usage

Setting Up Your Environment

1. 🔑 Obtain an API Key:

   Sign up on Linkup to get your API key.

2. ⚙️ Set the API Key as an Environment Variable:

   Option 1: Export the LINKUP_API_KEY environment variable in your shell before using the Python SDK.

   export LINKUP_API_KEY='YOUR_LINKUP_API_KEY'
   

   Option 2: Set the LINKUP_API_KEY environment variable directly within Python, using for instance os.environ or python-dotenv with a .env file (python-dotenv needs to be installed separately in this case), before creating the Linkup Client.

   import os
   from linkup import LinkupClient
   
   os.environ["LINKUP_API_KEY"] = "YOUR_LINKUP_API_KEY"
   # or dotenv.load_dotenv()
   client = LinkupClient()
   ...
   

   Option 3: Pass the Linkup API key to the Linkup Client when creating it.

   from linkup import LinkupClient
   
   client = LinkupClient(api_key="YOUR_LINKUP_API_KEY")
   ...
   

📋 Example

from linkup import LinkupClient

# Initialize the client (API key can be read from the environment variable or passed as an argument)
client = LinkupClient()

# Perform a search query
search_response = client.search(
    query="What are the 3 major events in the life of Abraham Lincoln?",
    depth="standard",  # or "deep"
    output_type="searchResults",  # or "sourcedAnswer" or "structured"
    structured_output_schema=None,  # must be filled if output_type is "structured"
)
print(search_response)

# Get access to our Premium Sources Partners content
content_response = client.content(
    url="https://www.thebridgechronicle.com/news/capgemini-employees-walk-together-in-celebration-"
    "of-indias-independence",
)
print(content_response)
