[DEPRECATED] AI API Client SDK
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No. The package is explicitly deprecated and no longer maintained. SAP directs all users to migrate to sap-ai-sdk-base. While it has low install friction and no known vulnerabilities, starting a new project with a deprecated package introduces technical debt and abandonment risk. Use sap-ai-sdk-base for new work; only install this if maintaining legacy code that cannot yet migrate.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python >=3.9 and valid SAP AI Core credentials (base_url, auth_url, client_id, client_secret, resource_group).
- Low install friction with three lightweight runtime dependencies.
- However, the package is marked as aging (457 days since last release) and explicitly deprecated in favor of sap-ai-sdk-base, signaling that active maintenance has ended.

What it is and what it does
This is a Python client library for SAP's AI API, allowing developers to programmatically query and manage AI Core resources—scenarios, executables, and configurations—through Python objects and method calls rather than raw HTTP requests. It abstracts authentication and API communication, letting you work with AI Core using familiar Python patterns.
The package is now deprecated and no longer maintained; SAP explicitly directs users to sap-ai-sdk-base instead. It depends on three lightweight libraries (aenum, pyhumps, requests) and supports Python 3.9 through 3.12. While it carries no known security vulnerabilities, its aging status and explicit deprecation mean it should be treated as end-of-life for new projects.
Use it for
- Query available AI scenarios and executables in an SAP AI Core environment from Python scripts.
- Create and manage training configurations by binding parameters to executables programmatically.
- Inspect executable metadata (parameters, types) to dynamically build deployment pipelines.
- Integrate SAP AI Core operations into Python-based MLOps or orchestration workflows.
