First Steps

Set your app configuration in environment variables as follows:

MERCADO_LIBRE_APP_CLIENT_ID  
MERCADO_LIBRE_APP_CLIENT_SECRET
MERCADO_LIBRE_REDIRECT_URI  

Authentication

1. Browse to `http://auth.mercadolibre.com.ar/authorization?response_type=code&client_id={MERCADO_LIBRE_APP_CLIENT_ID}&redirect_uri={MERCADO_LIBRE_REDIRECT_URI}
2. Pass the query param code to the OAuth().authenticate() method

from mercadolibre.OAuth import OAuth

...

response = OAuth().authenticate(code=code)

3. This will return you an access_token and refresh_token that should be managed and stored by your application

4. To private requests you should always include the access_token and refresh_token when initiate the MercadoLibreAPI

self.mercadolibre = MercadoLibreAPI(access_token=access_token,
                                    refresh_token=refresh_token)

self.mercadolibre.Item().get(id="MLB123456789")

5. The client will try to make the private request with the given access_token.

   • If it fails because of token expired, it will try to update the token for you using the refresh_token provided

   • If it fails again, then it will return error

   • If there is no need to update the access_token it will return tokens = None so you don't need to update nothing

6. If the client get a new token, it will be returned to you along with the request response as below:

self.mercadolibre = MercadoLibreAPI(access_token=access_token,
                                    refresh_token=refresh_token)

response, tokens = self.mercadolibre.Item().get(id="MLB123456789")

Public Requests

1. Do not need an access_token and refresh_token

MercadoLibreAPI().Item().get(id="MLB123456789")

Private Requests

Requests that need authentication, mandatory access_token and refresh_token

access_token: string

refresh_token: string

from mercadolibre import MercadoLibreAPI

...

self.mercadolibre = MercadoLibreAPI(access_token=access_token,
                                    refresh_token=refresh_token)
