Python SDK

Python SDK helps you bring video recording and playback to your service

For all projects using Python, Ziggeo's Python SDK is the way to go.

To download it you can either:

  1. Use the direct link to download the Python SDK
  2. Download from or fork our Python SDK Github repository.

Python methods

To use Ziggeo Python SDK you would first need to install it:
pip install ziggeo
To use the methods from SDK in your code you would need to include it first. To include Python SDK you would use the following call: 
ziggeo = Ziggeo("YOUR APP TOKEN", "YOUR_APP_PRIVATE_KEY", "YOUR_APP_ENCRYPTION_KEY")
Calling methods is as simple as: 
ziggeo.resource().method(args)
The following is the list of methods and their function calls
