What it is and what it does
Dub is an official Python client for the Dub.co API, a link attribution and conversion tracking platform. It wraps Dub's REST API to let you create short links, manage tags and domains, retrieve analytics, handle affiliate commissions, and run A/B tests on link variants—all from Python code. The SDK supports both synchronous and asynchronous workflows via context managers, and uses pydantic for request/response validation and httpx for HTTP transport.
The package targets Python 3.10 and later. It depends on httpcore, httpx, jsonpath-python, and pydantic. Installation is straightforward via pip, uv, or poetry, and the SDK is designed to work with Dub API authentication tokens. It includes built-in support for retries, pagination, custom HTTP clients, and error handling.
Use it for
- Create and manage short links programmatically for marketing campaigns or affiliate tracking.
- Retrieve click and conversion analytics for links to measure campaign performance.
- Manage affiliate commissions and bounty submissions within your application.
- Run A/B tests by creating link variants with specified traffic percentages.
- Integrate Dub link tracking into a backend service or automation workflow.
