# PyPI API
This is the API documentation for [PyPI Packages](../../user/packages/pypi_repository/index.md).
WARNING:
This API is used by the [PyPI package manager client](https://pypi.apache.org/)
and is generally not meant for manual consumption.
For instructions on how to upload and install PyPI packages from the GitLab
package registry, see the [PyPI package registry documentation](../../user/packages/pypi_repository/index.md).
NOTE:
These endpoints do not adhere to the standard API authentication methods.
See the [PyPI package registry documentation](../../user/packages/pypi_repository/index.md)
for details on which headers and token types are supported.
## Download a package file
> Introduced in GitLab 12.10.
Download a PyPI package file. The [simple API](#simple-api-entry-point)
normally supplies this URL.
```plaintext
GET projects/:id/packages/pypi/files/:sha256/:file_identifier
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| --------- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
| `id` | string | yes | The ID or full path of the project. |
| `sha256` | string | yes | PyPI package file sha256 check sum. |
| `file_identifier` | string | yes | The PyPI package file name. |
```shell
curl --user <username>:<personal_access_token> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/pypi/files/5y57017232013c8ac80647f4ca153k3726f6cba62d055cd747844ed95b3c65ff/my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz"
```
To write the output to a file:
```shell
curl --user <username>:<personal_access_token> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/pypi/files/5y57017232013c8ac80647f4ca153k3726f6cba62d055cd747844ed95b3c65ff/my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz" >> my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz
```
This writes the downloaded file to `my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz` in the current directory.
## Simple API entry point
> Introduced in GitLab 12.10.
Returns the package descriptor as an HTML file:
```plaintext
GET projects/:id/packages/pypi/simple/:package_name
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| --------- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
| `id` | string | yes | The ID or full path of the project. |
| `package_name` | string | yes | The name of the package. |
```shell
curl --user <username>:<personal_access_token> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/pypi/simple/my.pypi.package"
```
Example response:
```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Links for my.pypi.package</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Links for my.pypi.package</h1>
<a href="https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/pypi/files/5y57017232013c8ac80647f4ca153k3726f6cba62d055cd747844ed95b3c65ff/my.pypi.package-0.0.1-py3-none-any.whl#sha256=5y57017232013c8ac80647f4ca153k3726f6cba62d055cd747844ed95b3c65ff" data-requires-python="&gt;=3.6">my.pypi.package-0.0.1-py3-none-any.whl</a><br><a href="https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/pypi/files/9s9w01b0bcd52b709ec052084e33a5517ffca96f7728ddd9f8866a30cdf76f2/my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz#sha256=9s9w011b0bcd52b709ec052084e33a5517ffca96f7728ddd9f8866a30cdf76f2" data-requires-python="&gt;=3.6">my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz</a><br>
</body>
</html>
```
To write the output to a file:
```shell
curl --user <username>:<personal_access_token> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/pypi/simple/my.pypi.package" >> simple.html
```
This writes the downloaded file to `simple.html` in the current directory.
## Upload a package
> Introduced in GitLab 11.3.
Upload a PyPI package:
```plaintext
PUT projects/:id/packages/pypi
```
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| --------- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
| `id` | string | yes | The ID or full path of the project. |
```shell
curl --request PUT \
--upload-file path/to/my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz \
--user <username>:<personal_access_token> \
"https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/pypi"
```
