It is officially supported for Python 3.8+ and documented to work on earlier versions. The library is used by Files.com's own Desktop v6 application and is the primary integration path for Python-based custom workflows. Support is provided by the Files.com team via authenticated support requests or direct email.","worth_installing":"Yes.
