Quip API Python Client
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No—unless you are maintaining legacy code already using this package. The library is abandoned (no updates since 2020-09-17), declares support only for outdated Python versions (up to 3.6), and Quip's API may have evolved since the last release. High install friction and lack of maintenance make it a poor choice for new projects.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires a valid Quip API access token; package has not been updated since 2020 and may not work with current Quip API versions.
- High install friction due to source distribution only (no wheel).
- Package is abandoned—last release was 2020-09-17 with no updates since then.

What it is and what it does
quipclient is a Python wrapper around the Quip Automation API, packaged for pip installation. It provides a QuipClient class that accepts an access token and exposes methods to interact with Quip documents, folders, and workspaces programmatically. The package is a repackaging of the official Quip API's Python library, reorganized for PyPI distribution with no core code changes beyond the import namespace change from `quip` to `quipclient`.
The library has been abandoned since its single release on 2020-09-17, with no maintenance or updates since then. It declares support for Python 2.7 and 3.4–3.6, and has no runtime dependencies. High install friction stems from source-only distribution (no wheel), requiring compilation on installation.
Use it for
- Automate bulk operations on Quip documents (create, update, delete) from Python scripts
- Build integrations between Quip and other tools or workflows via the Quip API
- Programmatically query and retrieve Quip document metadata and content
- Manage Quip team collaboration spaces and permissions through automation
