SDK reference

The Sully SDKs provide authenticated clients for note generation and transcription. Sully M1 uses the OpenAI SDK instead.

Install

npm install @sullyai/sullyai

pip install --pre sullyai

Create a client

import SullyAI from "@sullyai/sullyai";

const client = new SullyAI({
  apiKey: process.env.SULLY_API_KEY,
  accountID: process.env.SULLY_ACCOUNT_ID,
  baseURL: process.env.SULLY_API_BASE_URL,
});

import os

from sullyai import SullyAI

client = SullyAI(
    api_key=os.environ["SULLY_API_KEY"],
    account_id=os.environ["SULLY_ACCOUNT_ID"],
    base_url=os.environ["SULLY_API_BASE_URL"],
)

TypeScript	Python	Description
`apiKey`	`api_key`	API key created in the Sully dashboard.
`accountID`	`account_id`	Account ID from the Sully dashboard.
`baseURL`	`base_url`	API origin, `https://api.sully.ai`.

Request methods

The clients add the Sully authentication headers and parse successful JSON responses. The public guides use these methods:

TypeScript	Python	Use
`client.get<T>(path, options)`	`client.get(path, cast_to=..., options=...)`	Retrieve a resource.
`client.post<T>(path, options)`	`client.post(path, cast_to=..., body=..., options=...)`	Create a resource or start an operation.
`client.delete<T>(path, options)`	`client.delete(path, cast_to=..., options=...)`	Delete a resource.

TypeScript returns parsed JSON. Python requires cast_to; use httpx.Response when you want to read the response with .json():

type GenerateNoteResponse = {
  requestId: string;
  note: string;
};

const result = await client.post<GenerateNoteResponse>("/v3/notes", {
  body: {
    transcript: "Fictional encounter transcript...",
  },
  timeout: 300_000,
  maxRetries: 0,
});

console.log(result.note);

import httpx

response = client.post(
    "/v3/notes",
    cast_to=httpx.Response,
    body={"transcript": "Fictional encounter transcript..."},
    options={"timeout": 300.0, "max_retries": 0},
)

print(response.json()["note"])

For multipart requests, pass a FormData body in TypeScript. In Python, pass form fields with body, the upload with files, and a multipart content type:

import { readFile } from "node:fs/promises";

const form = new FormData();
form.append(
  "audio",
  new Blob([new Uint8Array(await readFile("./visit.mp3"))], {
    type: "audio/mpeg",
  }),
  "visit.mp3",
);
form.append("language", "en");

const transcription = await client.post("/v2/audio/transcriptions", {
  body: form,
  timeout: 300_000,
  maxRetries: 0,
});

import httpx

with open("./visit.mp3", "rb") as audio:
    response = client.post(
        "/v2/audio/transcriptions",
        cast_to=httpx.Response,
        body={"language": "en"},
        files={"audio": ("visit.mp3", audio, "audio/mpeg")},
        options={
            "headers": {"Content-Type": "multipart/form-data"},
            "timeout": 300.0,
            "max_retries": 0,
        },
    )

Creation requests use a five-minute client timeout because note generation and transcription setup can exceed the SDK’s one-minute default. Automatic retries are disabled because repeating either POST can create duplicate billable work.

Create a streaming token

Create a short-lived token before opening a browser WebSocket connection:

type CreateStreamingTokenResponse = {
  data: { token: string };
};

const tokenResponse = await client.post<CreateStreamingTokenResponse>(
  "/v1/audio/transcriptions/stream/token",
  {
    body: { expiresIn: 300 },
    maxRetries: 0,
  },
);
const token = tokenResponse.data.token;

import httpx

token_response = client.post(
    "/v1/audio/transcriptions/stream/token",
    cast_to=httpx.Response,
    body={"expiresIn": 300},
    options={"max_retries": 0},
)
token = token_response.json()["data"]["token"]

The SDK authenticates the token request but does not open the WebSocket or capture audio. See streaming transcription for the connection flow.

Errors

Non-success responses raise typed SDK errors:

try {
  await client.get("/v2/audio/transcriptions/tx_example");
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof SullyAI.APIError) {
    console.error(error.status);
  } else {
    throw error;
  }
}

import httpx
import sullyai

try:
    client.get(
        "/v2/audio/transcriptions/tx_example",
        cast_to=httpx.Response,
    )
except sullyai.APIStatusError as error:
    print(error.status_code)
