I have not worked in Eloqua since 2017, and therefore have not maintained this package. I have used alcohol to erase as much of my working memory of Eloqua as possible. If you still have to work with Eloqua, you have my condolences. Please feel free to fork this repo and continue the work (if you do, please consider sharing with the community of other folks who currently suffer the same fate).
Python wrapper functions for Eloqua APIs, tested with Python 2.7 and Python 3.3 - 3.6.
Documentation is your friend (http://docs.oracle.com/cloud/latest/marketingcs_gs/OMCAC/index.html) - if you can't do it in the API, you can't do it with this module.
NOTICE I'm in the middle of a rebuild that will result in breaking changes to existing uses. This is to facilitate better unit testing and meet coding standards and best practices. Right now, if you upgrade to the latest version (release v0.4.0), you will receive warnings when attempting to use the old methods. After a few minor version releases, when the new code is stabilized, the deprecated code will be removed entirely. Please continue using release v0.3.5 until you have updated your code.
Please feel free to let me know of any problems by filing an issue on Github.
What can the API do? The Eloqua APIs are for the import and export of data from an existing Eloqua instance.
You need an Eloqua user account with at least Advanced Marketing User or API User permissions.
To work with the bulk API, we start with the Bulk
class:
from pyeloqua import Bulk
bulk = Bulk(company='mycompany', username='myusername', password='mypassword')
We can even view some basic information about our Eloqua instance:
bulk.site_id # Eloqua site ID
bulk.user_display # Your displayed username
To work with small batches of form data, use the Form
class
NOTE: for large batches of form data that do not need to be close to realtime,
use Bulk for an Activity export
from pyeloqua import Form
form = Form(company='mycompany', username='myusername', password='mypassword',
form_id=1234)
There are examples in the /examples
directory:
