API Python |
The Python API can be installed through ‘pip’ using:
>> python -m pip install --index-url=https://blpapi.bloomberg.com/repository/releases/python/simple/ blpapi
We support and provide wheels for Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12; Both 32 and 64 bits, for Windows, macOS, and most versions of Linux. These wheels now come bundled with the required C++ API, and a separate C++ API installation is no longer required.
On Linux, ‘pip’ >= 19.3 is required to install these wheels. A source package is also provided for other platforms/Python versions. If building the module from sources, a local installation of the C++ API is required for both building and importing the blpapi module in Python.
Note: The oldest supported version of Python for BLPAPI is currently Python 3.8.
