Zamp SDK
The official Python SDK for executing actions on the Zamp platform.
Installation
pip install zamp-sdk
Or with Poetry:
poetry add zamp-sdk
Quick Start
import asyncio
from zamp_sdk import ActionExecutor
async def main():
result = await ActionExecutor.execute(
"send_invoice",
{"invoice_id": "inv_123"},
base_url="https://api.zamp.ai",
auth_token="your-api-token",
)
print(result)
asyncio.run(main())
Using environment variables
Set ZAMP_BASE_URL and ZAMP_AUTH_TOKEN in your environment, then call without explicit config:
result = await ActionExecutor.execute("send_invoice", {"invoice_id": "inv_123"})
API Reference
ActionExecutor.execute()
@staticmethod
async def execute(
action_name: str,
params: Any,
*,
base_url: str | None = None,
auth_token: str | None = None,
summary: str | None = None,
return_type: type | None = None,
action_retry_policy: RetryPolicy | None = None,
action_start_to_close_timeout: timedelta | None = None,
) -> Any
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
action_name |
str |
Yes | Name of the registered action to execute |
params |
Any |
Yes | Input parameters for the action |
base_url |
str | None |
No | Zamp API base URL. Falls back to ZAMP_BASE_URL env var |
auth_token |
str | None |
No | API authentication token. Falls back to ZAMP_AUTH_TOKEN env var |
summary |
str | None |
No | Human-readable description of the execution |
return_type |
type | None |
No | Pydantic model to validate the result against |
action_retry_policy |
RetryPolicy | None |
No | Retry configuration for the action |
action_start_to_close_timeout |
timedelta | None |
No | Maximum execution time for the action |
RetryPolicy
from zamp_sdk import RetryPolicy
policy = RetryPolicy(
initial_interval=timedelta(seconds=30),
maximum_attempts=3,
maximum_interval=timedelta(minutes=15),
backoff_coefficient=1.5,
)
# Or use the default configuration:
policy = RetryPolicy.default()
When action_retry_policy is omitted from ActionExecutor.execute(), the SDK
applies RetryPolicy.default() automatically — actions fail fast (2 retries +
1 initial attempt) so script failures surface quickly. Pass an explicit policy
to opt into longer retries when needed.
| Field | Type | Default (via .default()) |
|---|---|---|
initial_interval |
timedelta |
30 seconds |
maximum_attempts |
int |
3 |
maximum_interval |
timedelta |
15 minutes |
backoff_coefficient |
float |
1.5 |
Configuration
| Environment Variable | Description |
|---|---|
ZAMP_BASE_URL |
Base URL of the Zamp API (e.g. https://api.zamp.ai) |
ZAMP_AUTH_TOKEN |
API authentication token |
Explicit parameters passed to ActionExecutor.execute() take precedence over environment variables.
Databases (zamp_sdk.db)
Access the organization's datasets by writing ordinary SQLAlchemy. The SDK compiles your expression and ships it to the platform — no DSN, no connection, no credential ever reaches your script.
import sqlalchemy as sa
from sqlalchemy import select, insert, update
from sqlalchemy.dialects.postgresql import insert as pg_insert
from zamp_sdk.db import datasets
# Existing dataset: one line, and you get a real sqlalchemy.Table
invoices = await datasets.table("invoices")
# From here down it is stock SQLAlchemy
rows = await datasets.execute(
select(invoices).where(invoices.c.status == "open").limit(50)
)
# Several statements, one transaction — all land or none do
async with datasets.transaction() as tx:
tx.add(insert(invoices).values(vendor="Acme", amount=1200.50))
tx.add(
update(invoices).where(invoices.c.id == 7).values(status="closed"),
expected_rows=1, # 0 → someone else changed it → whole body rolls back
)
# Large reads page with a keyset cursor
async for page in datasets.stream(select(invoices), page_size=10000):
process(page)
The six calls
| Call | Does |
|---|---|
datasets.table(name) / datasets.tables(names) |
Fetch schema, return live sa.Table objects. The plural form is one call |
datasets.execute(stmt, expected_rows=None) |
Run one statement, return its rows |
datasets.transaction() |
Buffer statements, ship one body as one transaction |
datasets.stream(stmt, page_size=10000, key="id") |
Page a large read with a keyset cursor |
datasets.create(table, if_exists="error"|"skip") |
Create a dataset. Returns the table to use — see below |
datasets.drop(table_or_name) |
Delete a dataset and all its rows |
Renaming, altering, sharing, revoking and listing are called directly via
ActionExecutor (agent_db_rename_dataset, agent_db_alter_dataset,
agent_db_share_dataset_access, agent_db_revoke_dataset_access,
agent_db_list_datasets) — SQLAlchemy has no construct to compile from for those, so
a wrapper would add a surface without adding anything.
Creating: use the returned table
Every dataset gets an auto-injected id primary key (added by the platform).
create() returns the table as the platform describes it after creating, so
table.c.id exists on the object you go on to use:
customers = sa.Table("customers", sa.MetaData(),
sa.Column("name", sa.Text, nullable=False))
customers = await datasets.create(customers, if_exists="skip") # ← reassign
await datasets.execute(select(customers.c.id, customers.c.name))
Declaring your own id is safe and wins — the injection is skipped.
Errors
One exception type, AgentDbError, carrying Postgres's own vocabulary:
from zamp_sdk import AgentDbError
try:
await datasets.execute(stmt)
except AgentDbError as e:
print(e.sqlstate) # "23505" — None if it never reached Postgres
print(e.statement_index) # which statement in the body failed
sqlstate is None is meaningful: it says the failure happened before Postgres saw
the statement (a gate rejection, an authorization refusal). A TimeoutError
propagates unwrapped, because the statement may have committed.
Writes that may run twice
A script can be re-run, so say in the SQL when a write must be safe to repeat:
on_conflict_do_update is idempotent by construction, and a guarded
update(...).where(status == "pending") is safe to repeat. Both need a unique
constraint, which you declare in the CREATE TABLE or add later with
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX.
Evals (zamp_sdk.evals)
Mark the calls a script makes to the outside world, and the steps of its own logic, so an eval trial can replay the outside world from fixtures and grade what the script did. Outside a trial the decorators do nothing.
import httpx
from zamp_sdk import evals
@evals.external_call("erp.order", key_argument="order_id")
async def fetch_order(order_id: str) -> Order:
... # in a trial: answered from the fixture, never run
@evals.external_call("erp.page")
async def get_page(url: str) -> httpx.Response:
... # a fixture's status/body/content/headers become a Response
@evals.observe("steps.review")
async def review(order_id: str) -> Decision:
order = await fetch_order(order_id) # traced with "steps.review" as its parent
...
entries = await evals.read_trace() # the trial's calls so far; [] outside a trial
| Name | Does |
|---|---|
external_call(name, key_argument=None) |
In a trial, answer the call from its fixture instead of running it |
observe(name, key_argument=None) |
In a trial, run the function and record what it returned or raised |
read_trace() |
The calls this trial has traced so far, in order, as TraceEntry values |
FixtureLookupError |
Raised when the trial has no fixture left for a call; the message says which and why |
key_argumentnames the parameter whose value tells calls of the same name apart (one fixture per order id, say). It must be a parameter of the function, or a keyword the function takes through**kwargs; a call that leaves it out, or passesNone, has the keyNone.- Arguments are recorded by name, except credential-like ones (
token,headers,api_key,*_secret, ...), which are never written. - Bytes are base64. A
bytesvalue is written to the trace as base64 text, and a fixture value for abytesreturn type must be base64 too. - Sync functions work in a sandbox. In workflow code on ActionsHub, make a decorated function
async: a sync one is refused inside a trial. Generator functions cannot be decorated.
Error Handling
| Exception | When |
|---|---|
HttpClientError |
HTTP request fails (non-2xx status, network error, timeout) |
RuntimeError |
Action reaches a terminal failure state (FAILED, CANCELED, TERMINATED, TIMED_OUT) |
TimeoutError |
Polling for action result exceeds the timeout limit |
KeyError |
Required environment variable is missing and no explicit value was provided |
from zamp_sdk.action_executor.utils import HttpClientError
try:
result = await ActionExecutor.execute("my_action", params)
except HttpClientError as e:
print(f"HTTP error {e.status_code}: {e.message}")
except RuntimeError as e:
print(f"Action failed: {e}")
except TimeoutError as e:
print(f"Timed out: {e}")
