# paradime-io — Paradime - Python SDK

License: unclear · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 270.7K/mo

## What it is and what it does

Paradime-io is a Python SDK that provides programmatic and command-line access to the Paradime data platform. It handles authentication (supporting both modern bearer tokens and legacy API key pairs), abstracts API communication, and includes telemetry to help Paradime track SDK usage across different runtime environments (local, Airflow, GitHub Actions, etc.). The SDK is built on a substantial dependency stack including cloud provider SDKs (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure), data processing libraries (DuckDB, Polars, PyArrow), and orchestration tools (croniter for scheduling, Pydantic for validation).

Developers use it to automate data workflows, trigger jobs, query metadata, and integrate Paradime operations into Python scripts or orchestration frameworks. The CLI mode allows shell-based interaction after setting environment variables or running an interactive login flow. Telemetry is enabled by default but can be disabled via an environment variable.

Use it for:

- Automate dbt runs and data transformations from Python scripts or Airflow DAGs using the Paradime API.
- Query and monitor job status, logs, and metadata from a Python application without manual API calls.
- Integrate Paradime workspace operations into CI/CD pipelines via the CLI with bearer token authentication.
- Build custom data orchestration workflows combining Paradime jobs with local data processing.
- Manage multi-workspace operations using company-level tokens to target different workspaces programmatically.

## Worth the install?

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

Python SDK for interacting with the Paradime data platform API, supporting both bearer token and legacy API key authentication with CLI and programmatic interfaces.

Yes, with conditions. The SDK is actively maintained, has low install friction, and is popular in the top 15000 on PyPI. However, the unclear license status is a blocker for commercial or compliance-sensitive use—verify the actual license before committing. The Python 3.11 requirement and large dependency footprint are acceptable for most modern environments but may complicate lightweight deployments.

## Install

pip install paradime-io
uv add paradime-io
poetry add paradime-io

## Installing paradime-io

Before you install: Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel distribution. Actively maintained with a release 1 day old. Requires Python 3.11 or later. Runtime dependency graph is substantial with 25 packages including cloud SDKs and data libraries, but all are standard PyPI packages.

License in practice: License treatment is unclear—no SPDX identifier or raw license text is available in the package metadata. Before installing in a commercial or compliance-sensitive context, verify the actual license terms from the project repository or publisher.

Quickstart:

pip install paradime-io

from paradime import Paradime

paradime = Paradime(
    api_endpoint="YOUR_ENDPOINT",
    api_secret="prdm_wsp_YOUR_TOKEN"
)
# Use paradime client to call API methods

Requires Python 3.11 or later. API credentials (endpoint and token) must be obtained from Paradime workspace settings before instantiation.

Verify before relying:

- Specific API methods and capabilities available through the client object are not detailed in the excerpt.
- Whether the 25 runtime dependencies are all required or conditionally installed based on use case.
- Performance characteristics and rate-limiting behavior of the SDK.
- Scope and stability guarantees for the public API surface across versions.
