# mypy-boto3-secretsmanager — Type annotations for boto3 SecretsManager 1.43.0 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 9.0M/mo

## What it is and what it does

This package is a type-stub library that adds static type information for boto3's SecretsManager service. It is generated from boto3 1.43.0 using mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0 and works with mypy, pyright, VSCode Pylance, PyCharm, and other type-aware tools to provide IDE autocomplete and catch type errors at development time.

When installed, it allows you to annotate boto3 SecretsManager clients and related objects with precise types, enabling your editor and type checker to validate your code without runtime errors. It supports client annotations, paginators, and type-safe literals for service operations. The package is designed as a development-only dependency and can be excluded from production using TYPE_CHECKING guards.

Use it for:

- Add IDE autocomplete and type checking to boto3 SecretsManager code in VSCode with Pylance or PyCharm.
- Catch type errors in AWS Secrets Manager API calls before runtime using mypy or pyright.
- Annotate SecretsManagerClient and paginator objects for explicit type safety in large codebases.
- Enable static analysis in CI/CD pipelines to validate boto3 SecretsManager usage patterns.

## Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts above — verify before relying.

Provides type annotations and IDE autocomplete support for boto3's SecretsManager service, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and other tools.

Yes, if you use boto3 SecretsManager and want IDE autocomplete or static type checking. Install friction is minimal, maintenance is active, and there are no security vulnerabilities. The MIT license poses no restrictions. PyCharm users should be aware of potential performance issues with full stubs and may prefer the lite variant.

## Install

pip install mypy-boto3-secretsmanager
uv add mypy-boto3-secretsmanager
poetry add mypy-boto3-secretsmanager

## Installing mypy-boto3-secretsmanager

Before you install: Low install friction with a single lightweight runtime dependency (typing-extensions). Actively maintained as of 2026-06-22 with no known vulnerabilities.

License in practice: MIT license permits unrestricted use, modification, and distribution in both open-source and proprietary projects.

Quickstart:

pip install mypy-boto3-secretsmanager

from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_secretsmanager import SecretsManagerClient

client: SecretsManagerClient = Session().client("secretsmanager")

Requires Python 3.9 or later; boto3 must be installed separately in your environment.

Verify before relying:

- Whether the package works correctly with all listed IDE integrations (VSCode, PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text) in practice.
- Performance impact on PyCharm when using full boto3-stubs versus the lite variant, as documentation warns of potential slowness.
