Sysdig Documentation

Sysdig Python Client

Sysdig provides a Python client library and a collection of Python sample scripts to expose and use some of the most common Sysdig API functions, also known as the sdcclient. Typically, users either make minor modifications to a sample Python script to automate something simple, such as creating users or adding users to teams, or they work along with Sysdig professional services to customize samples and create more complex application integrations.


The Sysdig Platform is built on the Sysdig REST API, a few functions of which have been documented for public consumption. Until the REST API is more formally documented, we just provide some basic conventions; see Sysdig REST API Conventions.
