It wraps the platform's REST API surface\u2014more than 70 endpoints\u2014to provide programmatic access to voice calls, SMS/MMS messaging, fax, team messaging (Glip), and account configuration. The SDK handles authentication, request formatting, and response parsing, so you can focus on business logic rather than HTTP plumbing.\n\nTypical use involves instantiating an SDK object with credentials, obtaining a platform handle, authenticating via JWT or other methods, and then making GET/POST/PUT/DELETE calls to API endpoints. The package depends on requests for HTTP transport, websockets for real-time event subscriptions (replacing the deprecated PubNub), and observable for reactive patterns. It is maintained by RingCentral but releases infrequently; the last version bump was over a year ago.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building on the RingCentral platform and need a Python client. The SDK is stable, has low install friction, and covers the platform's main capabilities. However, verify the license terms before use, confirm Python version support for your environment, and be aware that releases are infrequent\u2014expect to maintain or patch the package yourself if you hit edge cases or need newer API features."},"id":"ringcentral","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/ringcentral","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/ringcentral.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/ringcentral/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-06-18","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"ringcentral","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"RingCentral Python SDK"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":561049,"position":5998,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.9.2"}
