Python Engine SDK Classes
Important
This Python SDK uses outdated technology that limits your extension opportunities. We've built a new Platform SDK using Python and the latest open-source technology to deliver a vastly improved development experience. Go to Platform SDK to get started!
Classes allow you to control data and determine functionality, bundling them together for easy control. For more information on Python classes, see Python Documentation.
These classes can be used when creating custom tools.
