suitespotauth 0.3.5

Easy SuiteSpot authentication.

SuiteSpot Authentication

Introduction

This package is a light wrapper for the SuiteSpot authentication API to provide easy creation of an access token. This token is required as part of Bearer Authorization in all calls to SuiteSpot's analytics API.

Installation

$ pip install suitespotauth

or

$ python -m pip install suitespotauth

Configuration

This package relies on your SuiteSpot username and password, since SuiteSpot's authentication API uses them in creating Basic Authorization for the initial authentication flow request. The username and password can be securely stored either on your computer or in a cloud provider.

Local environment

If you are running the package locally, you can store your SuiteSpot credentials on your computer (macOS Keychain or Windows Credential Locker). This is built on top of keyring.

Run the following command to set your local SuiteSpot credentials:

$ suitespotauth-configure

Cloud environment

You can also store your SuiteSpot credentials in a cloud provider secret manager. This helps for cloud environments (e.g., Lambda) where you can't use local secret storage. (Of course, you may choose to store your SuiteSpot credentials in a cloud provider even if you are running locally.)

See the Cloud configuration section for the syntax used for cloud credential storage.

Usage

from suitespotauth import SuiteSpotAuth
from suitespotauth import LocalCredentialStorage  # Or a cloud option

my_credentials = LocalCredentialStorage()

auth = SuiteSpotAuth(
    credential_storage=my_credentials,
    api_token_name="Custom SuiteSpot API token name"  # Optional
)

access_token = auth.access_token

headers = {
    "Authorization": f"Bearer {access_token}"
}

Cloud configuration

AWS

suitespotauth supports using AWS Parameter Store (SSM) to retrieve SuiteSpot credentials. You must have IAM permissions for your runtime (e.g., Lambda) to access the parameters. Instructions for IAM permissions are beyond the scope of this readme.

Set two SSM parameters, username and password, named anything you want. Choose SecureString type when creating the parameters. Then, provide the paths to these parameters when creating the AWSCredentialStorage object.

Install the AWS dependencies:

$ pip install 'suitespotauth[aws]'

from suitespotauth import AWSCredentialStorage

my_credentials = AWSCredentialStorage(
    username_path="/path/to/suitespot/username/in/ssm",
    password_path="/path/to/suitespot/password/in/ssm"
)

GCP

suitespotauth supports using GCP Secret Manager to retrieve SuiteSpot credentials. Set two secrets, username and password, named anything you want. Then, provide the Project ID and the paths to these two secrets when creating the GCPCredentialStorage object.

Install the GCP dependencies:

$ pip install 'suitespotauth[gcp]'

from suitespotauth import GCPCredentialStorage

my_credentials = GCPCredentialStorage(
    project_id="my-gcp-project-id",
    username_secret_id="suitespot-username-secret-id",
    password_secret_id="suitespot-password-secret-id"
)

Azure

suitespotauth supports using Azure Key Vault to retrieve SuiteSpot credentials. Set two secrets, username and password, named anything you want. Then, provide the Vault URL and the names of these two secrets when creating the AzureCredentialStorage object.

Install the Azure dependencies:

$ pip install 'suitespotauth[azure]'

from suitespotauth import AzureCredentialStorage

my_credentials = AzureCredentialStorage(
    vault_url="https://my.azure.keyvault.url",
    username_secret_name="suitespot-username-secret-name",
    password_secret_name="suitespot-password-secret-name"
)
