Authentication is passed as an authenticator param when initializing the service
v4

Breaking changes

The v4 adds support only from python 3.5 and above. Major changes include:

Method optional param

The method params which are optional would need to be specified by name rather than position. For example:

The list_workspaces with page_limit as 10 was:

assistant_service.list_workspaces(10)

Now, we need to specify the optional param name

assistant_service.list_workspaces(page_limit=10)

Authentication methods

There are 5 authentication variants supplied in the SDK (shown below), and it's possible now to create your own authentication implementation if you need something specific by implementing the Authenticator implementation.

BasicAuthenticator

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import BasicAuthenticator

authenticator = BasicAuthenticator(<your_username>, <your_password>)
service = MyService(authenticator=authenticator)

BearerTokenAuthenticator

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import BearerTokenAuthenticator

authenticator = BearerTokenAuthenticator(<your_bearer_token>)
service = MyService(authenticator=authenticator)

# can set bearer token
service.get_authenticator().set_bearer_token('54321');

CloudPakForDataAuthenticator

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import CloudPakForDataAuthenticator

authenticator = CloudPakForDataAuthenticator(
                 'my_username',
                 'my_password',
                 'https://my-cp4d-url',
                 disable_ssl_verification=True)
service = MyService(authenticator=authenticator)

IAMAuthenticator

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import IAMAuthenticator

authenticator = IAMAuthenticator('my_apikey')
service = MyService(authenticator=authenticator)

NoAuthAuthenticator

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import NoAuthAuthenticator

authenticator = NoAuthAuthenticator()
service = MyService(authenticator=authenticator)

Creating an Authenticator from Environmental Configuration

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core import get_authenticator_from_environment

authenticator = get_authenticator_from_environment('Assistant')
service = MyService(authenticator=authenticator)
