It wraps the WorkOS REST API with a namespace-based interface (e.g., client.sso, client.organizations, client.user_management) and supports both synchronous and asynchronous HTTP calls via httpx. The library handles pagination automatically, includes typed exception classes for different HTTP error codes, and ships with full type annotations for IDE support and static type checking.\n\nThe client reads credentials from environment variables or explicit parameters, automatically retries requests with exponential backoff on transient failures, and attaches idempotency keys to POST requests. It covers a broad API surface\u2014SSO, user and organization management, directory sync, audit logs, fine-grained authorization (FGA), feature flags, webhooks, MFA, and more\u2014making it suitable for applications that need to integrate WorkOS services without building HTTP calls by hand.","worth_installing":"Yes. The library is actively maintained (release 3 days old), has low install friction, carries no known vulnerabilities, and uses a permissive MIT license. It is well-suited for any Python application integrating WorkOS services. The only constraint is Python 3.10+; if your project targets an older version, you cannot use it."},"id":"workos","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/workos","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/workos.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/workos/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-11","license_spdx":"MIT","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"workos","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"WorkOS Python Client"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":5685385,"position":2054,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"10.2.0"}
