It defines the protobuf message schemas and gRPC service interfaces that make up Flyte's backend API contract. The package contains auto-generated Python client code built from these protobuf definitions, along with the Golang clients for Flyte's administrative services.\n\nDevelopers typically use flyteidl when they need to programmatically construct, serialize, or deserialize Flyte workflow specifications and API requests\u2014either directly when building custom Flyte integrations, or indirectly through higher-level Flyte client libraries. The package depends on protobuf, googleapis-common-protos, and protoc-gen-openapiv2 to provide the runtime message handling and protocol support.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building custom integrations with Flyte or need direct programmatic access to Flyte's backend API. Install it as a dependency of a higher-level Flyte client library (such as flyte-sdk) if you are a typical end user. The package is actively maintained, permissively licensed, has low install friction, and carries no known vulnerabilities."},"id":"flyteidl","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/flyteidl","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/flyteidl.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/flyteidl/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-09","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"flyteidl","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"IDL for Flyte Platform"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":758606,"position":5133,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.16.8"}
