linq-python
The official Python library for the linq-api-v3 API
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries no known vulnerabilities, and offers a clean, type-safe interface to the Linq API. It is suitable for production use if you need to integrate Linq messaging into a Python application. The Apache-2.0 license is permissive and the SDK supports current Python versions (3.9+).AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires LINQ_API_V3_API_KEY environment variable or explicit api_key parameter to authenticate with the Linq API.
- Low friction install with a pure-Python wheel and six standard dependencies.
- Active maintenance with a recent release and no known vulnerabilities.

What it is and what it does
linq-python is an officially maintained Python SDK for the Linq API V3, a REST API for messaging and chat operations. It wraps the Linq API with type-safe request and response models built on Pydantic, offering both synchronous (LinqAPIV3) and asynchronous (AsyncLinqAPIV3) clients powered by httpx. The library handles pagination automatically, includes built-in retry logic for transient failures, and provides detailed error types for different HTTP status codes.
The SDK is designed for Python 3.9+ applications that need to send messages, create chats, or interact with Linq's messaging infrastructure. It supports nested typed parameters, serialization helpers (to_json, to_dict), and optional aiohttp backend for async workloads. All types are exposed for IDE autocomplete and type checking.
Use it for
- Build a messaging application that sends SMS or chat messages via the Linq API with full type safety and IDE support.
- Integrate Linq chat functionality into an async web service or background job runner using AsyncLinqAPIV3.
- Fetch and iterate through paginated lists of chats without manually handling pagination logic.
- Handle API errors gracefully by catching specific exception types (RateLimitError, AuthenticationError, etc.).
- Use the optional aiohttp backend for high-concurrency scenarios requiring many simultaneous API calls.
