Project Description

This is an unoffical PythonSDK currently in alpha testing.

The Gremlin API requires a form of authentication, either API Key or Bearer Token. API Keys are the least privileged form of authentication, are easy to manage and change, but do not allow for company wide actions see https://www.gremlin.com/docs/api-reference/overview/ for a list of which API endpoints support API Keys vs. Bearer Tokens.

A bearer token may be provided to the API instead of an API Key, and this allow the owner of the bearer token to use an escalated set of permissions and actions, pending the user has those roles in the RBAC schema. Because bearer tokens are short lived, the user may chose to use the login function instead of directly providing a bearer token. The downside to this is that user credentials are directly exposed, and may end up in logs. When using the login function, the Gremlin API will return a bearer token which will be used on the users behalf to execute API actions.
