It handles token validation, user identity retrieval, and organization-level authorization checks (membership, roles, permissions) without requiring you to implement JWT verification or auth logic yourself. The library wraps HTTP calls to PropelAuth's backend APIs via httpx and requests, and uses pyjwt for token handling.\n\nTypically, you initialize it once with your auth URL and API key, then call validate_access_token_and_get_user on incoming requests to extract and verify the bearer token from the Authorization header. The returned User object lets you inspect organization membership, role hierarchies, and custom permissions. It also exposes direct API methods to create magic links, fetch users, and manage organizations\u2014useful for backend-to-backend operations beyond request validation.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building a B2B or multi-tenant application and already use or plan to adopt PropelAuth. The library eliminates token validation boilerplate and integrates cleanly with standard Python web frameworks. It is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and carries a permissive MIT license. Not suitable if you need a standalone auth solution without external service dependency."},"id":"propelauth-py","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/propelauth-py","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/propelauth-py.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/propelauth-py/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-04-21","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"propelauth-py","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A python authentication library"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":388370,"position":7035,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"4.4.0"}
