All data available from the Cytomine graphical interface can be manipulated programmatically from your computer. This page introduces the key concepts on how to interact with Cytomine without this graphical interface. Cytomine is a RESTful application. It means that the data stored and managed by Cytomine can be obtained through specific URLs. Contrary to the graphical interface, these URLs only provide relevant information data.

To ease interaction with Cytomine, the Cytomine API client for Python encapsulates all the technical details relative to the HTTP API so that you can manipulate Cytomine resources without complexity.

pip install cytomine-python-client

For versions lower than 2.3.4, refer to manual installation guide.
