Autogenerated python gRPC interface package for ansys-api-tools-filetransfer.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you are building an application that needs to interact with Ansys filetransfer services. The package has low install friction, active maintenance, a permissive MIT license, and no known vulnerabilities. It is a straightforward gRPC interface package with minimal dependencies. Install it only if your project actually calls the filetransfer service; it is not a general-purpose utility.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.10 or later; grpcio and protobuf must be installed as runtime dependencies.
- Low install friction with only two runtime dependencies (grpcio and protobuf).
- Actively maintained with recent commits and releases; last update was 164 days ago.

What it is and what it does
This package contains pre-generated gRPC Python interface code for Ansys's filetransfer service. It is built from protobuf definitions and provides the Python stubs and message classes needed to communicate with filetransfer gRPC endpoints. The package is primarily a build artifact—the interface files are identical regardless of the Python version used to generate them, though the documentation notes that historical builds targeted Python 3.7 for compatibility with grpcio~=1.17.
The package is intended to be installed as a dependency when you need to call the filetransfer service from Python code. It requires grpcio and protobuf at runtime and supports current Python versions (3.10+). The repository is actively maintained with CI/CD automation for building and publishing wheels.
Use it for
- Call Ansys filetransfer gRPC services from Python applications that need to transfer files programmatically.
- Integrate file transfer capabilities into Ansys tool workflows or custom applications using the generated gRPC stubs.
- Develop client code that communicates with filetransfer service endpoints without manually writing protobuf bindings.
