Panopto REST API Examples with Python 3

This repository includes examples that demonstrate how Panopto's REST API can be used with Python 3.

auth-server-side-web-app: Authorization as Server-side Web Application
auth-user-based-app: Authorization as User Based Server Application
auth-id-provider: Authorization for ID provider integration
common: Shared code used by multiple examples
folders-cli: Command line application with Folders API
scheduled-recording-crud: Create/read/update/delete via Scheduled Recording API.
sessions-cli: Command line application with Sessions API

Warning

Those samples do not necessarily implement complete error handling or retry logic. As the best practice, you should have both proper error handling and reasonable retry logic in production code.

Capture traffic

It is useful to capture the actual network traffic with a capture tool, like Fiddler on Windows or Charles on Mac, and examine it. The samples in repository generally accept --skip-verify option for that purpose, so that they ignore the SSL certificate replaced by such tool and continue to run.

An issue with urllib3

This method does not work with the latest Python urllib3 library as of 2022-07-09, version 1.26.10. As a workaround, you may install the older version of urllib3 by the following commandline.

pip install --upgrade urllib3==1.25.11
