Core abstractions for kiota generated libraries in Python
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you are using a Kiota-generated API client that handles text/plain payloads. Install it directly only if explicitly required by your generated client code or if you are building custom Kiota serialization logic. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and carries a permissive license. For most users, it will be a transitive dependency pulled in automatically.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.10 or later.
- Low install friction with a single runtime dependency (microsoft-kiota-abstractions).
- Active maintenance with a recent release and no known vulnerabilities.

What it is and what it does
This package is a text serialization plugin for the Microsoft Kiota framework, a code generator for building type-safe REST API clients. It handles the serialization and deserialization of plain text (text/plain) payloads exchanged with API endpoints. Kiota-generated projects automatically reference this library to process text responses and requests from REST services.
The package is a specialized component in the Kiota ecosystem, not a general-purpose text serializer. It integrates with microsoft-kiota-abstractions to provide text handling alongside other serialization formats. If you are using a Kiota-generated client library, this dependency is typically pulled in automatically; direct use is uncommon outside that context.
Use it for
- Processing plain text responses from REST APIs in Kiota-generated client code.
- Serializing text payloads for API requests that accept text/plain content type.
- Building type-safe API clients that need to handle mixed content types including plain text.
- Extending Kiota-generated clients to work with text-based API endpoints.
