pyobjc-framework-AdSupport

What it is and what it does

pyobjc-framework-adsupport is a thin wrapper layer that exposes Apple's AdSupport framework to Python code running on macOS. It is part of the PyObjC project, which bridges Objective-C frameworks to Python by translating method calls, types, and object models between the two languages. The package itself contains no documentation—it relies on Apple's official AdSupport documentation and PyObjC's general translation guide.

You would use this package when you need to access advertising identifiers or other AdSupport functionality from Python on macOS. It requires macOS 10.14 or later and Python 3.10 or later, and depends on pyobjc-core and pyobjc-framework-Cocoa to function. The package is actively maintained as part of the broader PyObjC ecosystem.

Use it for:

• Access IDFA (Identifier for Advertisers) or other advertising identifiers from Python on macOS.
• Build macOS applications that need to integrate with system-level advertising APIs.
• Automate or script macOS advertising-related functionality from Python.

Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Provides Python bindings to macOS's AdSupport framework, enabling access to advertising-related APIs on macOS 10.14 or later through PyObjC.

Yes, if you are developing on macOS and need to call AdSupport framework APIs from Python. The package has low install friction, active maintenance, no known vulnerabilities, and a permissive license. Install only if you are on macOS 10.14+ and actually need AdSupport functionality; it is not useful on other platforms.

Before you install

Low friction install with active maintenance. Released 3 days ago, last commit 2026-08-14, and supports current Python versions (3.10–3.15). Depends on pyobjc-core and pyobjc-framework-Cocoa, both part of the same ecosystem.

License in practice

MIT license (permissive) places no restrictions on use, modification, or distribution.

Quickstart

pip install pyobjc-framework-adsupport

import AdSupport
# Access AdSupport framework APIs through the imported module

macOS 10.14 or later required; Python 3.10+ required; only works on macOS systems.

Verify before relying

• Whether AdSupport APIs are fully wrapped or if some framework methods remain inaccessible.
• Whether this package is actively used in production or primarily maintained for completeness.
