NGPVAN

Overview

The VAN module leverages the VAN API and generally follows the naming convention of their API endpoints. It is recommended that you reference their API documentation for additional details and information.

Note

API Keys

API Keys are specific to each committee and state.
There was once a Parsons type API Key that could be requested via the VAN Integrations menu, but that key type has been deprecated by NGPVAN. API keys should now be requested as a custom integration. For additional guidance, refer to the Parsons Slack or reach out to <parsons@movementcooperative.org>.

Warning

VANIDs: VANIDs are unique to each state and instance of the VAN. VANIDs used for the AV VAN will not match those of the SmartVAN or VoteBuilder.
Maintenance & Support: VAN/EveryAction is not responsible for support of Parsons. Their support team cannot answer questions about Parsons. Please direct any questions to the Parsons team via the issue tracker or Slack.

QuickStart

To call the VAN class you can either store the api key as an environmental variable VAN_API_KEY or pass it in as an argument.

from parsons import VAN

 van = VAN(db='MyVoters') # Specify the DB type and pass api key via environmental variable.

 van = VAN(api_key='asdfa-sdfadsf-adsfasdf',db='MyVoters') # Pass api key directly

You can then call various endpoints:

from parsons import VAN

 van = VAN(db='MyVoters')

 # List events with a date filter
 events = van.get_events(starting_before='2018-02-01')

 # List all folders shared with API Key User
 folders = van.get_folders()

 # Return to a Redshift database
 saved_lists = van.get_saved_lists().to_redshift('van.my_saved_lists')

This a is just a small sampling of all of the VAN endpoints that you can leverage. We recommend reviewing the documentation for all functions.

Common Workflows

Bulk Import

For some methods, VAN allows you to bulk import multiple records to create or modify them.

The bulk upload endpoint requires access to files on the public internet as it runs the upload asynchronously. Therefore, in order to bulk import, you must pass in cloud storage credentials (either AWS S3 or Google Cloud Storage) so that the file can be posted.

Bulk Apply Activist Codes

In this example we are applying activist codes to a list of contacts. The csv file would have the following columns:

vanid

activistcodeid

from parsons import VAN, Table

van = VAN(db='EveryAction')

# Load a table containing the VANID, activistcodeid and other options.
tbl = Table.from_csv('new_volunteers.csv')

# Table will be sent to S3 bucket and a POST request will be made to VAN creating
# the bulk import job with all of the valid meta information. The method will
# return the job id.
job_id = van.bulk_apply_activist_codes(tbl, url_type="S3", bucket='my_bucket')

# The bulk import job is run asynchronously, so you may poll the status of a job.
job_status = van.get_bulk_import_job(job_id)

** Bulk Upsert Contacts** In this example we are creating and updating emails and addresses. The csv file would have the following columns:

vanid
first_name
last_name
address
city
state
zip
email

Note that vanid must be the first column in your table. For additional fields, see the bulk_upsert_contacts() documentation.

If a record contains a null value, it will not be updated.

If the VANID record is null, then a new record will be created.

from parsons import VAN, Table

van = VAN(db=EveryAction)

# Load a table containing VANID and PII columns
tbl = Table.from_csv('hot_leads.csv')

# Table will be sent to S3 bucket and a POST request will be made to VAN creating
# the bulk import job with all of the valid meta information. The method will
# return the job id.
job_id = van.bulk_upsert_contacts(tbl, url_type="S3", bucket='my_bucket')

# The bulk import job is run asynchronously, so you may poll the status of a job.
job_status = van.get_bulk_import_job(job_id)

# When the job is complete, get the results of the job. This file will include newly
# created vanids.
job_results = van.get_bulk_import_job_results(job_id)

Upload Saved List

from parsons import VAN, Table

van = VAN(db='MyVoters')

# Load a table containing VANIDs
tbl = Table.from_csv('gcs_test.csv')

# The destination folder id. You can get a list of folder ids by running the
# VAN.get_folders() method. Remember to share the folder with your API user
# or you will not be able to access it.
folder_id = 1171

# The destination list name
list_name = 'My Winning List v1.0'

# The cloud storage service and kwargs specific to GCS.
url_type = 'GCS'
bucket_name = 'my_bucket'
app_creds = 'my_creds.json' # Not required if stored as env variable.

van.upload_saved_list(tbl, list_name, folder_id, url_type, replace=true,
                      bucket_name=bucket_name, app_creds=app_creds)

Scores: Loading and Updating

Loading a score is a multi-step process. Once a score is set to approved, loading takes place overnight.

Standard Auto Approve Load

from parsons import VAN, Table

van = VAN(db='MyVoters') # API key stored as an environmental variable

# If you don't know the id, you can run van.get_scores() to list the
# slots that are available and their associated score ids.
score_id = 9999

# Load the Parsons table with the scores. The first column of the table
# must be the person id (e.g. VANID). You could create this from Redshift or
# another source.
tbl = Table.from_csv('winning_scores.csv')

# Specify the score id slot and the column name for each score.
config = [{'score_id': score_id, 'score_column': 'winning_model'}]

# If you have multiple models in the same file, you can load them all at the same time.
# In fact, VAN recommends that you do so to reduce their server loads.
config = [{'score_id': 5555, 'score_column': 'score1'}, {'score_id': 5556, 'score_column': 'score2'}]

# The score file must posted to the internet. This configuration uses S3 to do so. In this
# example, your S3 keys are stored as environmental variables. If not, you can pass them
# as arguments.
job_id = van.upload_scores(tbl, config, url_type='S3', email='info@tmc.org', bucket='tmc-fake')

Standard Load Requiring Approval

from parsons import VAN

van = VAN(db='MyVoters') # API key stored as an environmental variable
config = [{'score_id': 3421, 'score_column': 'winning_model'}]

# Note that auto_approve is set to False. This means that you need to manually approve
# the job once it is loaded.
job_id = van.upload_scores(tbl, config, url_type='S3', email='info@tmc.org',
                           bucket='tmc-fake', auto_approve=False)

# Approve the job
van.update_score_status(job_id,'approved')

People: Add Survey Response

The following workflow can be used to apply survey questions, activist codes and canvass responses.

from parsons import VAN

# Instantiate Class
van = VAN(db="MyVoters")

van_id = 13242
sq = 311838 # Valid survey question id
sr = 1288926 # Valid survey response id
ct = 36 # Valid contact type id
it = 4 # Valid input type id

# Create a valid survey question response
van.apply_survey_response(vanid, sq, sr, contact_type_id=ct, input_type_id=it)

Event: Creating and Modifying

Events are made up of sub objects that need to exist to create an event

Event Object - The event itself
Event Type - The type of event, such as a Canvass or Phone Bank. These are created in the VAN UI and can be reused for multiple events.
Locations - An event can have multiple locations. While not required to initially create an event, these are required to add signups to an event.
Roles - The various roles that a person can have at an event, such as Lead or Canvasser. These are set as part of the event type.
Shifts - Each event can have multiple shits in which a person can be assigned. These are specified in the event creation.

from parsons import VAN

# Instantiate class
van = VAN(db="EveryAction")

# Create A Location
loc_id = van.location(name='Big `Ol Canvass', address='100 W Washington', city='Chicago', state='IL')

# Create Event

short_name = 'GOTVCan' # Short name of event, 12 chars or less
start_time = '2018-11-01T15:00:00' # ISO formatted date
end_time = '2018-11-01T18:00:00' # ISO formatted date after start time
event_type_id = 296199 # A valid event type id
roles = [259236] # A list of valid role ids
location_ids = [loc_id] # An optional list of locations ids for the event
description = 'CPD Super Volunteers Canvass' # Optional description of 200 chars or less
shifts = [{'name': 'Shift 1',
           'start_time': '2018-11-01T15:00:00',
           'end_time': '2018-11-11T17:00:00'}] # Shifts must fall within event start/end time.

new_event = van.event_create(name, short_name, start_time, end_time, event_type_id, roles,
                             location_ids=location_ids, shifts=shifts, description=description)

Signup: Adding and Modifying

from parsons import VAN

# Instantiate class
van = VAN(db="EveryAction")

# Create a new signup

vanid = 100349920
event_id = 750001004
shift_id = 19076
role_id = 263920
location_id = 3
role_id = 263920
status_id = 11

# Create the signup. Will return a signup id
signup_id  = van.signup_create(vanid, event_id, shift_id, role_id, status_id, location_id

# Modify a status of the signup
new_status_id = 6
van.signup_update(signup_id, status_id=new_status_id)
