## 💡 Getting Started

For full documentation, please visit [Encord Python SDK](https://docs.encord.com/reference/installation-sdk).

First, install Encord Python API Client using the [pip](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing) package manager:

```bash
python3 -m pip install encord
```

Then, generate an public-private key pair, and upload the public key to [Encord website](https://www.encord.com/).
Detailed guide can be found in the [dedicated manual](https://docs.encord.com/docs/annotate-public-keys).

Passing the private key to the factory, you can initialise the Encord client directly.

```python
# Import dependencies
from encord import EncordUserClient

# Authenticate with Encord using the path to your private key.  Replace <private_key_path> with the path to your private key.
user_client = EncordUserClient.create_with_ssh_private_key(
  ssh_private_key_path="<private_key_path>"
  )
```

For detailed examples and API reference please refer to [Encord SDK documentation](https://python.docs.encord.com/)
