Quick Start Example

Initialize the SDK

from asktable import Asktable

# Replace with your API-Key
api_key = 'API_KEY_or_TEMP_TOKEN'
api_url = 'https://api.asktable.com/v1'

at = Asktable(api_key=api_key, base_url=api_url)

List Data Sources

datasources = at.datasources.list()
for ds in datasources.items:
    print(f"ID: {ds.id}, Name: {ds.name}")

Create a Data Source

new_datasource = at.datasources.create(
    name='NewDataSource',
    engine='excel',
    access_config={
        "location_url": "your-excel-file-url",
        "location_type": "http"
    }
)
print(f"Created DataSource ID: {new_datasource.id}")

Quick Query

answer = at.single_turn.q2a.create(
     question="your-question",
     datasource_id="your-datasource-id"
 )
print(answer.text)

Create a Bot

datasource_ids = ['ds_1']
bot = at.bots.create(
    datasource_ids=datasource_ids,
    name="testt",
)
print(bot.id)

Create a Chat

chat = at.chats.create(
    bot_id=bot.id,
    name="test",
)
print(chat.id)

Conversation Query

msg = at.chats.messages.create(
    chat_id=chat.id,
    question="What is the score of the top student?",
)
print(msg.content['text'])
