Controlshift

Overview

Controlshift is a platform for creating campaigns with distributed events, local groups, and member-led petitions. This connector allows you to interact with select functions of the the Controlshift Authenticated REST API .

Note

Authentication

An API Application Integration is required to instantiate the Controlshift class. Details on how to create the integration and acquire credentials can be found on the Controlshift website.

Quickstart

To instantiate the Controlshift class, you can either store your credentials as environment variables (CONTROLSHIFT_HOSTNAME, CONTROLSHIFT_CLIENT_ID, and CONTROLSHIFT_CLIENT_SECRET) or pass them in as arguments:

from parsons import Controlshift

# First approach: Use API credentials via environmental variables
cs = Controlshift()

# Second approach: Pass API credentials as arguments
cs = Controlshift(hostname='my_hostname', client_id='my_client_id', client_secret='my_client_secret')

# Get all petitions
cs.get_petitions()
