# Python SDK

For developers seeking a streamlined integration experience, Ethereal Exchange offers an officially supported Python SDK that provides comprehensive access to the trading API and websocket gateway. The SDK abstracts away many of the implementation complexities, handling authentication, request formatting, and signature generation while offering intuitive interfaces for market data retrieval, order management, and account operations.

For complete documentation, code examples, and implementation guides, please refer to our comprehensive SDK documentation available [here](https://meridianxyz.github.io/ethereal-py-sdk/).

{% hint style="info" %}
At the time of writing, Ethereal only has support for a Python SDK with many more languages coming soon.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.ethereal.trade/developer-guides/sdk/python-sdk.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
