Merge Python Library

The Merge Python library provides access to the Merge API from Python.

Documentation

API reference documentation is available here.

Installation

pip install --upgrade MergePythonClient

Instantiation

import merge
from merge.client import Merge

client = Merge(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY", account_token="YOUR_ACCOUNT_TOKEN")

Categories

This SDK contains the ATS, HRIS, CRM, Ticketing, Accounting, and File Storage categories. Even if you do not plan on using more than one Merge API category right now, the SDK provides upgrade-flexibility in case you find new Merge API categories useful in the future.

Each category is namespaced:

client = Merge(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")

client.ats. # APIs specific to the ATS Category

client.hris. # APIs specific to the HRIS Category

Usage

Create Link Token

import merge
from merge.client import Merge
from merge.resources.ats.types import CategoriesEnum

merge_client = Merge(
    api_key="<YOUR_API_KEY>", 
    account_token="<YOUR_ACCOUNT_TOKEN>")

link_token_response = merge_client.ats.link_token.create(
    end_user_email_address="[e-mail]",
    end_user_organization_name="acme",
    end_user_origin_id="1234",
    categories=[CategoriesEnum.ATS],
    link_expiry_mins=30,
)

print("Created link token", link_token_response.link_token)

Get Employee

import merge
from merge.client import Merge

merge_client = Merge(
    api_key="<YOUR_API_KEY>", 
    account_token="<YOUR_ACCOUNT_TOKEN>")

employee = merge_client.hris.employees.retrieve(
    id="0958cbc6-6040-430a-848e-aafacbadf4ae")

Get Candidate

import merge
from merge.client import Merge

merge_client = Merge(
    api_key="<YOUR_API_KEY>", 
    account_token="<YOUR_ACCOUNT_TOKEN>")

candidate = merge_client.ats.candidates.retrieve(
    id="521b18c2-4d01-4297-b451-19858d07c133")

Filter Candidate

import merge
from merge.client import Merge

merge_client = Merge(
    api_key="<YOUR_API_KEY>", 
    account_token="<YOUR_ACCOUNT_TOKEN>")

candidates_response = merge_client.ats.candidates.list(
    created_after="2030-01-01")

print(candidates_response.results)

Get Contact

import merge
from merge.client import Merge

merge_client = Merge(
    api_key="<YOUR_API_KEY>", 
    account_token="<YOUR_ACCOUNT_TOKEN>")

contact = merge_client.accounting.contacts.retrieve(
    id="c640b80b-fac9-409f-aa19-1f9221aec445")

Create Ticket

import merge
from merge.client import Merge
from merge.resources.ticketing.types import TicketStatusEnum

merge_client = Merge(
    api_key="<YOUR_API_KEY>", 
    account_token="<YOUR_ACCOUNT_TOKEN>")

merge_client.ticketing.tickets.create(
    model=merge.ticketing.TicketRequest(
        name="Please add more integrations",
        assignees=[
            "17a54124-287f-494d-965e-3c5b330c9a68"
        ],
        creator="3fa85f64-5717-4562-b3fc-2c963f66afa6",
        due_date="2022-10-11T00:00:00Z",
        status=TicketStatusEnum.OPEN,
    ))

File Download

import merge
from merge.client import Merge

merge_client = Merge(
    api_key="<YOUR_API_KEY>", 
    account_token="<YOUR_ACCOUNT_TOKEN>")

files = merge_client.filestorage.files.list(name="<FILE_NAME>").results

id = files[0].id
name = files[0].name
local_filename = f"<LOCAL_FILE_PATH>/{name}"

response = merge_client.filestorage.files.download_retrieve(id=id)
with open(local_filename, "wb") as f:
    for chunk in response:
        f.write(chunk)

Pagination

The SDK may return paginated results. Endpoints that return paginated results will include a next and prev property on the response. To get the next page, you can pass in the value of next to the cursor property on the request. Similarly, to get the previous page, you can pass in the value of prev to the cursor property on the request.

Below is an example of iterating over all pages:

# response contains the first page
response = merge_client.hris.employees.list(created_after="2030-01-01")

# if there is a next page, load it by passing `next` to the cursor argument
while response.next is not None:
    response = hris_client.employees.list(
        cursor=response.next, 
        created_after="2030-01-01")

Contributing

While we value open-source contributions to this SDK, this library is generated programmatically. Additions made directly to this library would have to be moved over to our generation code, otherwise they would be overwritten upon the next generated release. Feel free to open a PR as a proof of concept, but know that we will not be able to merge it as-is. We suggest opening an issue first to discuss with us!

On the other hand, contributions to the README are always very welcome!
