CLI Provisioning with Commander SDK

Keeper supports API-based provisioning through the use of our Python-based Keeper Commander SDK. The Keeper Commander SDK is open source Python code that is available for download from Keeper's Github Repository. The Commander SDK can assist in the following use cases:

• Command line access to your Keeper vault

• Importing passwords, folders and shared folder

• Provisioning users and teams

• Pushing records to users and teams

• Sharing records and folders with users and teams

• Performing targeted password rotation

Since Keeper Commander is an open source SDK and written in Python, it can be customized to meet your needs and integrated into your back-end systems.

Installation for Windows

1. Download and install WinPython​

2. From the install folder of WinPython, run the "WinPython Command Prompt"

3. Install Keeper Commander with pip3

$ pip3 install keepercommander

Install Keepass Library

If you plan to use the Keepass import or export features of Keeper Commander, follow these instructions.

Upgrading to Latest Code

$ pip3 install --upgrade keepercommander

Please do not upgrade a production system without validation in your test environment as commands and functionality is under rapid development.

Developer Setup

This type of installation assumes you want to view/modify the Python source code (Compatible with Python 3.4+).

1. Clone/Download the Commander repository

2. Install Python3 from python.org

3. Install virtualenv:

$ sudo pip3 install virtualenv

Create and activate the virtual environment for your keeper project:

$ cd /path/to/Commander
$ virtualenv -p python3 venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ pip install -e .

Keeper supports plugins for various 3rd party systems for password reset integration. Depending on the plugin, you will need to also install the modules required by that plugin. For example, our MySQL plugin requires the PyMySQL module.

See the custom folder for examples on creating your own custom scripts.
