[![PyPI version](https://badge.fury.io/py/authy.svg)](https://pypi.org/project/authy/) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/twilio/authy-python.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/authy/authy-python)

# Python Client for Twilio Authy Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) API

Documentation for Python usage of the Authy API lives in the [official Twilio documentation](https://www.twilio.com/docs/authy/api/).

The Authy API supports multiple channels of 2FA:
* One-time passwords via SMS and voice.
* Soft token ([TOTP](https://www.twilio.com/docs/glossary/totp) via the Authy App)
* Push authentication via the Authy App

If you only need SMS and Voice support for one-time passwords, we recommend using the [Twilio Verify API](https://www.twilio.com/docs/verify/api) instead. 

[More on how to choose between Authy and Verify here.](https://www.twilio.com/docs/verify/authy-vs-verify)

### Authy Quickstart

For a full tutorial, check out either of the Python Authy Quickstarts in our docs:
* [Python/Django Authy Quickstart](https://www.twilio.com/docs/authy/quickstart/two-factor-authentication-python-django)
* [Python/Flask Authy Quickstart](https://www.twilio.com/docs/authy/quickstart/two-factor-authentication-python-flask)

## Authy Python Installation

Install with [pip](https://www.twilio.com/docs/usage/quickstart/devenvironment-python#how-to-install-pip):

    $ pip install authy

**OR**

Download the [source code](https://github.com/twilio/authy-python/archive/master.zip) and run the following command from your terminal:

    $ python setup.py install

_Note that you may need admin permissions to run the above commands._

## Usage

To use the Authy client, import AuthyApiClient and initialize it with your production API Key found in the [Twilio Console](https://www.twilio.com/console/authy/applications/):

```python
from authy.api import AuthyApiClient
authy_api = AuthyApiClient('your_api_key')
```

## 2FA Workflow

1. [Create a user](https://www.twilio.com/docs/authy/api/users#enabling-new-user)
2. [Send a one-time password](https://www.twilio.com/docs/authy/api/one-time-passwords)
3. [Verify a one-time password](https://www.twilio.com/docs/authy/api/one-time-passwords#verify-a-one-time-password)

**OR**

1. [Create a user](https://www.twilio.com/docs/authy/api/users#enabling-new-user)
2. [Send a push authentication](https://www.twilio.com/docs/authy/api/push-authentications)
3. [Check a push authentication status](https://www.twilio.com/docs/authy/api/push-authentications#check-approval-request-status)


## <a name="phone-verification"></a>Phone Verification

[Phone verification now lives in the Twilio API](https://www.twilio.com/docs/verify/api) and has [Python support through the official Twilio helper libraries](https://www.twilio.com/docs/libraries/python). 

[Legacy (V1) documentation here.](verify-legacy-v1.md) **Verify V1 is not recommended for new development. Please consider using [Verify V2](https://www.twilio.com/docs/verify/api)**.
