Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

WebexAPI

✓ from webexpythonsdk import WebexAPI

✗ from webexteamssdk import WebexAPI

The library was renamed from webexteamssdk to webexpythonsdk in v2.0.0. The old import no longer works.

ApiError

✓ from webexpythonsdk.exceptions import ApiError

✗ from webexpythonsdk import ApiError

ApiError is in the exceptions module, not top-level.

Initialize the SDK with your Webex Bot Token and list rooms. Replace 'your_token_here' with a valid token.

import os from webexpythonsdk import WebexAPI api = WebexAPI(os.environ.get('WEBEX_TOKEN', '')) for room in api.rooms.list(): print(room.title)

Debug

Known issues

breakingLibrary renamed from webexteamssdk to webexpythonsdk in v2.0.0. Existing code using 'from webexteamssdk import ...' will break. Migrate to webexpythonsdk.

fix

Change your import to 'from webexpythonsdk import ...' and update requirements files.

affects: >=2.0.0

breakingPython 2 support removed. Python 3.10+ required. Older codebases on Python 2 or 3.6-3.9 will not work.

fix

Upgrade to Python 3.10 or later.

affects: >=2.0.0

gotchaThe 'max' parameter in list_messages() can cause confusion. It limits the total number of messages returned across all pages, not per page. If you set max=10, it will fetch up to 10 messages, but may make multiple API calls.

fix

Understand that max controls total items. To limit per-page, use the 'limit' parameter (if available). For list_messages, 'max' is often the intended way.

affects: >=2.0.0

deprecatedThe old 'webexteamssdk' library is no longer maintained. Any security patches or bug fixes are only applied to webexpythonsdk.

fix

Switch to webexpythonsdk and update imports.

affects: all versions

Errors

Common errors & fixes

ImportError: No module named webexpythonsdk

Library not installed.

fix

Run 'pip install webexpythonsdk'.

webexpythonsdk.exceptions.ApiError: [401] Unauthorized

Invalid or missing API token.

fix

Ensure you have a valid Webex Bot Token and pass it to WebexAPI(token='...').

TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()

Occurs if you try to iterate over api.rooms.list() without a valid token; api object is not properly initialized.

fix

Check that your token is set and correctly passed to the WebexAPI constructor.
