python-screenconnect: An unofficial Python wrapper around the ConnectWise Control (formerly ScreenConnect) API

Currently undergoing initial development

Introduction

This library provides a pure Python interface for the ConnectWise Control (formerly ScreenConnect) API. Please note, this project is undergoing initial development.

Notices About Use of this Package

Two caveats must be made about the use of this package:

First, this project hooks directly into the various web services that come with a new installation of ConnectWise Control. However, these APIs are considered to exist for private use by the ConnectWise Control application. Thus, these APIs are not considered to be stable and may change from release to release. If needing APIs that are guaranteed to be highly stable, please use the provided Extension Development framework from the ConnectWise Control team.

Second, this project is an unofficial implementation. ConnectWise is not officially involved in this package's development in any capacity, and does not guaranteed long term support. For all other questions about use please consult the project license.

Python 3.5+ and dependencies listed on requirements.txt
An installed and publicly accessible ConnectWise Control server
