Getting Started

To use the OLX API Wrapper, you need to sign in to the OLX Developer Portal and create an app. For more details, visit Getting Access to the API.

Prerequisites

1. [Not required for public API] Obtain your Client ID and Client Secret from the OLX Developer Portal.
2. Store them securely (e.g., as environment variables). Avoid hardcoding them in your code.

Supported countries:

• OLX PL
• OLX BG
• OLX RO
• OLX PT
• OLX UA
• OLX KZ

By default, requests are sent to OLX PL. To change the country, pass the country_code argument to the relevant class:

from olx.partner import Auth, Adverts

auth = Auth(country_code="bg")
adverts = Adverts(country_code="ro")

Installation

1. Install the package:

   pip install olx-api-wrapper
   

2. Authenticate using the authorization code:

   from olx.partner import Auth
   
   auth = Auth(client_id="your_client_id", client_secret="your_client_secret")
   auth.authenticate(code="authorization_code")
   access_token = auth.access_token
   

3. Use the AuthResponse object to retrieve additional information:

   auth_response = auth.authenticate(code="authorization_code")
   print(auth_response.refresh_token)  # Retrieve the refresh token
   

4. Refresh an expired access token:

   auth.refresh(refresh_token=auth_response.refresh_token)

Usage
