Supersaas Python API Docs | dltHub

Build a Supersaas-to-database pipeline in Python using dlt with AI harness support for Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.

Last updated:

SuperSaaS is an online scheduling and appointment booking platform that provides a REST API to manage users, appointments, and account information. The REST API base URL is https://www.supersaas.com/api and Supports HTTP Basic authentication or URL query parameters for account name and API key..

dlt is an open-source Python library that handles authentication, pagination, and schema evolution automatically. dlthub provides AI context files that enable code assistants to generate production-ready pipelines. Install with uv add "dlt[hub]" and start loading Supersaas data in under 10 minutes.


What data can I load from Supersaas?

Here are some of the endpoints you can load from Supersaas:

ResourceEndpointMethodData selectorDescription
usersapi/users.jsonGETRetrieves a list of users
bookingsapi/bookings.jsonGETRetrieves appointments (requires parameters)
promotionsapi/promotions.jsonGETRetrieves a list of promotional coupon codes
schedulesapi/schedules.jsonGETRetrieves a list of schedules in an account
groupsapi/groups.jsonGETRetrieves a list of groups in an account

How do I authenticate with the Supersaas API?

The API supports HTTP Basic Authentication (where the username is the account name and the password is the API key) or passing the account name and API key as URL parameters.

1. Get your credentials

  1. Log in to your SuperSaaS account. 2. Navigate to 'Account Info' (or 'Account Settings'). 3. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to find the API key section. 4. If no key exists, click the 'Generate' button. 5. Copy your account name and API key, which are required for all API authentication methods.

2. Add them to .dlt/secrets.toml

[sources.supersaas_source] api_key = "REPLACE_ME"

dlt reads this automatically at runtime — never hardcode tokens in your pipeline script. For production environments, see setting up credentials with dlt for environment variable and vault-based options.


How do I set up and run the pipeline?

Set up a virtual environment and install dlt:

uv init uv add "dlt[hub]"

1. Install the dlt AI harness:

uv run dlthub ai init --agent <your-agent> # <agent>: claude | cursor | codex

This installs project rules, a secrets management skill, appropriate ignore files, and configures the dlt MCP server for your agent. Learn more →

2. Install the rest-api-pipeline toolkit:

uv run dlthub ai toolkit install rest-api-pipeline

This loads the skills and context about dlt the agent uses to build the pipeline iteratively, efficiently, and safely. The agent uses MCP tools to inspect credentials — it never needs to read your secrets.toml directly. Learn more →

3. Start LLM-assisted coding:

Use /find-source to load data from the Supersaas API into DuckDB.

The rest-api-pipeline toolkit takes over from here — it reads relevant API documentation, presents you with options for which endpoints to load, and follows a structured workflow to scaffold, debug, and validate the pipeline step by step.

4. Run the pipeline:

uv run python supersaas_pipeline.py

If everything is configured correctly, you'll see output like this:

Pipeline supersaas_pipeline load step completed in 0.26 seconds 1 load package(s) were loaded to destination duckdb and into dataset supersaas_data The duckdb destination used duckdb:/supersaas.duckdb location to store data Load package 1749667187.541553 is LOADED and contains no failed jobs

Inspect your pipeline and data:

uv run dlthub show

This opens the Pipeline Dashboard where you can verify pipeline state, load metrics, schema (tables, columns, types), and query the loaded data directly.


Python pipeline example

This example loads /api/users and /api/schedules from the Supersaas API into DuckDB. It mirrors the endpoint and data selector configuration from the table above:

import dlt from dlt.sources.rest_api import RESTAPIConfig, rest_api_resources @dlt.source def supersaas_source(api_key=dlt.secrets.value): config: RESTAPIConfig = { "client": { "base_url": "https://www.supersaas.com/api", "auth": {"type": "http_basic", "username": "REPLACE_ME", "password": api_key}, }, "resources": [ {"name": "users", "endpoint": {"path": "api/users.json"}}, {"name": "promotions", "endpoint": {"path": "api/promotions.json"}} ], } yield from rest_api_resources(config) def get_data() -> None: pipeline = dlt.pipeline( pipeline_name="supersaas_pipeline", destination="duckdb", dataset_name="supersaas_data", ) load_info = pipeline.run(supersaas_source()) print(load_info)

To add more endpoints, append entries from the resource table to the "resources" list using the same name, path, and data_selector pattern.


How do I query the loaded data?

Once the pipeline runs, dlt creates one table per resource. You can query with Python or SQL.

Python (pandas DataFrame):

import dlt data = dlt.pipeline("supersaas_pipeline").dataset() sessions_df = data.users.df() print(sessions_df.head())

SQL (DuckDB example):

SELECT * FROM supersaas_data.users LIMIT 10;

In a marimo or Jupyter notebook:

import dlt data = dlt.pipeline("supersaas_pipeline").dataset() data.users.df().head()

See how to explore your data in marimo Notebooks and how to query your data in Python with dataset.


What destinations can I load Supersaas data to?

dlt supports loading into any of these destinations — only the destination parameter changes:

DestinationExample value
DuckDB (local, default)"duckdb"
PostgreSQL"postgres"
BigQuery"bigquery"
Snowflake"snowflake"
Redshift"redshift"
Databricks"databricks"
Filesystem (S3, GCS, Azure)"filesystem"

Change the destination in dlt.pipeline(destination="snowflake") and add credentials in .dlt/secrets.toml. See the full destinations list.
