It provides the Python implementation of multipart/form-data encoding, which is needed when Kiota-generated clients need to send file uploads or complex form data to API endpoints that accept multipart payloads.\n\nThe package is a thin, focused layer that sits between Kiota-generated code and the underlying HTTP transport. It depends only on microsoft-kiota-abstractions and requires Python 3.10 or later. It's actively maintained and carries no known security vulnerabilities. You install it as a dependency of a Kiota-generated project, not typically as a standalone tool.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are using a Kiota-generated Python client that needs to send multipart payloads. Install it as a dependency of your generated client project rather than directly. It has low friction, active maintenance, no vulnerabilities, and a permissive license. If your generated client does not use multipart endpoints, you do not need it."},"id":"microsoft-kiota-serialization-multipart","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/microsoft-kiota-serialization-multipart","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/microsoft-kiota-serialization-multipart.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/microsoft-kiota-serialization-multipart/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-14","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"microsoft-kiota-serialization-multipart","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Core abstractions for kiota generated libraries in Python"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":9368675,"position":1540,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.11.9"}
