# Story 1.9: Create POC Example and Validation

Status: Ready for Review
Created: 2025-10-28
Epic: 1 - Project Foundation & Core SDK Generation

## Story

As a developer,
I want a working example demonstrating the complete onboarding flow,
So that we can validate the POC with the enterprise customer and demonstrate SDK capabilities.

## Acceptance Criteria

1. `examples/complete_flow.py` created demonstrating the full sync workflow
2. `examples/async_flow.py` created with async version of complete flow
3. Both examples demonstrate: initialize client → create login link → poll for login → list accounts → execute query → handle results
4. Examples include detailed comments explaining each step and expected outcomes
5. Error handling demonstrated with try/except blocks and clear error messages
6. Both examples tested manually (either against Supermetrics API with test credentials or with mock responses)
7. `README.md` updated with quick-start guide and links to examples
8. `examples/README.md` created explaining how to run examples and what to expect
9. POC validation completed: full flow works end-to-end with type safety, IDE autocomplete, and clear error messages

## Tasks / Subtasks

### Task 1: Create complete_flow.py (sync example) (AC: 1, 3, 4, 5)
- [x] Create `examples/` directory
- [x] Create `examples/complete_flow.py`
- [x] Add imports:
  ```python
  import os
  import time
  from supermetrics_sdk import SupermetricsClient, AuthenticationError, ValidationError, APIError, NetworkError
  ```
- [x] Add environment variable setup comments:
  ```python
  # Set your API key as environment variable:
  # export SUPERMETRICS_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
  ```
- [x] Implement Step 1: Initialize client
  ```python
  # Step 1: Initialize the Supermetrics client
  api_key = os.getenv("SUPERMETRICS_API_KEY")
  if not api_key:
      raise ValueError("SUPERMETRICS_API_KEY environment variable is required")

  client = SupermetricsClient(api_key=api_key)
  print("✓ Client initialized")
  ```
- [x] Implement Step 2: Create login link
  ```python
  # Step 2: Create a login link for Google Analytics 4
  # This generates a URL that the user visits to authenticate their GAWA account
  link = client.login_links.create(
      ds_id="GAWA",
      description="My GAWA Authentication"
  )
  print(f"✓ Login link created: {link.login_url}")
  print(f"  Link ID: {link.link_id}")
  print(f"  Status: {link.status_code}")
  print("\nPlease visit the login URL to authenticate your data source account.")
  print("After authentication, this script will continue automatically.\n")
  ```
- [x] Implement Step 3: Poll for login completion
  ```python
  # Step 3: Wait for user to complete authentication
  # In production, you'd use webhooks or have user return to your app
  # For POC, we poll the login link status
  max_wait = 300  # 5 minutes
  wait_interval = 5  # 5 seconds
  elapsed = 0

  while elapsed < max_wait:
      link = client.login_links.get(link_id=link.link_id)

      if link.login_id:
          print(f"✓ Authentication complete! Login ID: {link.login_id}")
          break

      print(f"  Waiting for authentication... ({elapsed}s elapsed)")
      time.sleep(wait_interval)
      elapsed += wait_interval
  else:
      raise TimeoutError("Authentication did not complete within 5 minutes")
  ```
- [x] Implement Step 4: Get login details
  ```python
  # Step 4: Retrieve login details
  login = client.logins.get(link_id=link.link_id)
  print(f"✓ Login details retrieved:")
  print(f"  Username: {login.username}")
  print(f"  Data Source: {login.ds_name}")
  print(f"  Login ID: {login.login_id}")
  ```
- [x] Implement Step 5: List available accounts
  ```python
  # Step 5: List available accounts for this login
  accounts = client.accounts.list(login_username=login.username)
  print(f"✓ Found {len(accounts)} accounts:")
  for account in accounts[:3]:  # Show first 3
      print(f"  - {account.account_name} (ID: {account.account_id})")

  if not accounts:
      raise ValueError("No accounts found for this login")

  # Use the first account for our query
  selected_account = accounts[0]
  ```
- [x] Implement Step 6: Execute query
  ```python
  # Step 6: Execute a data query
  # Get last 7 days of sessions data
  from datetime import datetime, timedelta

  end_date = datetime.now().date()
  start_date = end_date - timedelta(days=7)

  result = client.queries.execute(
      ds_id="GAWA",
      ds_accounts=[selected_account.account_id],
      fields=["Date", "Sessions", "Users"],
      start_date=start_date.isoformat(),
      end_date=end_date.isoformat()
  )

  print(f"✓ Query executed:")
  print(f"  Status: {result.status_code}")
  print(f"  Rows: {result.row_count}")
  ```
- [x] Implement Step 7: Handle async queries (if needed)
  ```python
  # Step 7: Handle async query results (if query status is "pending")
  if result.status_code == "pending":
      print(f"  Query is processing... Request ID: {result.request_id}")

      # Poll for results
      max_poll = 60  # 1 minute
      poll_interval = 2  # 2 seconds
      elapsed = 0

      while elapsed < max_poll:
          result = client.queries.get_results(query_id=result.request_id)

          if result.status_code == "completed":
              print(f"✓ Query completed! Rows: {result.row_count}")
              break

          print(f"  Polling... ({elapsed}s)")
          time.sleep(poll_interval)
          elapsed += poll_interval
      else:
          raise TimeoutError("Query did not complete within 1 minute")
  ```
- [x] Implement Step 8: Display results
  ```python
  # Step 8: Display query results
  print(f"\n{'='*60}")
  print("QUERY RESULTS")
  print(f"{'='*60}\n")

  # Display field headers
  field_names = [field.name for field in result.fields]
  print("  ".join(field_names))
  print("-" * 60)

  # Display first 10 rows of data
  for row in result.data[:10]:
      values = [str(row.get(field.id, "")) for field in result.fields]
      print("  ".join(values))

  print(f"\nShowing 10 of {result.row_count} rows")
  print(f"Data sampled: {result.data_sampled}")
  print(f"Cache used: {result.cache_used}")
  ```
- [x] Add comprehensive error handling:
  ```python
  # Wrap entire flow in try/except
  try:
      # ... all steps above ...
  except AuthenticationError as e:
      print(f"❌ Authentication failed: {e.message}")
      print(f"   Please check your API key is valid")
  except ValidationError as e:
      print(f"❌ Validation error: {e.message}")
      print(f"   Status: {e.status_code}")
      print(f"   Endpoint: {e.endpoint}")
  except APIError as e:
      print(f"❌ API error: {e.message}")
      print(f"   Status: {e.status_code}")
  except NetworkError as e:
      print(f"❌ Network error: {e.message}")
      print(f"   Please check your internet connection")
  except Exception as e:
      print(f"❌ Unexpected error: {str(e)}")
  else:
      print("\n✅ POC complete! All steps executed successfully.")
  ```
- [x] Add file header with description and usage instructions

### Task 2: Create async_flow.py (async example) (AC: 2, 3, 4, 5)
- [x] Create `examples/async_flow.py`
- [x] Import async client:
  ```python
  import asyncio
  import os
  from datetime import datetime, timedelta
  from supermetrics_sdk import SupermetricsAsyncClient, AuthenticationError, ValidationError, APIError, NetworkError
  ```
- [x] Implement async version of all steps from Task 1:
  ```python
  async def main():
      # Same flow as sync version but using async/await

      # Step 1: Initialize async client
      api_key = os.getenv("SUPERMETRICS_API_KEY")
      if not api_key:
          raise ValueError("SUPERMETRICS_API_KEY environment variable is required")

      async with SupermetricsAsyncClient(api_key=api_key) as client:
          print("✓ Async client initialized")

          # Step 2: Create login link
          link = await client.login_links.create(...)

          # Step 3-8: Same as sync but with await
          ...

  if __name__ == "__main__":
      asyncio.run(main())
  ```
- [x] Use `asyncio.sleep()` instead of `time.sleep()` for polling
- [x] Demonstrate context manager usage with `async with`
- [x] Add same error handling as sync version
- [x] Add comments explaining async/await benefits

### Task 3: Create examples/README.md (AC: 8)
- [x] Create `examples/README.md`
- [x] Add overview of available examples
- [x] Add prerequisites section:
  - Python 3.10+
  - Supermetrics API key
  - How to obtain API key
- [x] Add setup instructions:
  ```bash
  # Install SDK
  pip install supermetrics-sdk  # or: pip install -e .

  # Set API key
  export SUPERMETRICS_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
  ```
- [x] Add running instructions for each example:
  ```bash
  # Run sync example
  python examples/complete_flow.py

  # Run async example
  python examples/async_flow.py
  ```
- [x] Add "What to Expect" section explaining:
  - Step-by-step output
  - Authentication browser window
  - Query results display
  - Typical execution time
- [x] Add troubleshooting section:
  - "Authentication timeout" → link not visited in time

  - "No accounts found" → authentication may have failed
- [x] Add notes on adapting examples for production use

### Task 4: Update project README.md (AC: 7)
- [x] Edit `/Users/alekseipopov/tmp/API-118/README.md`
- [x] Add "Quick Start" section:
  ```markdown
  ## Quick Start

  ### Installation

  ```bash
  pip install supermetrics-sdk
  ```

  ### Basic Usage

  ```python
  from supermetrics_sdk import SupermetricsClient

  # Initialize client
  client = SupermetricsClient(api_key="your_api_key")

  # Create login link for data source authentication
  link = client.login_links.create(
      ds_id="GAWA",
      description="My Analytics Authentication"
  )

  # Get login details after user authenticates
  login = client.logins.get(link_id=link.link_id)

  # List available accounts
  accounts = client.accounts.list(login_username=login.username)

  # Execute query
  result = client.queries.execute(
      ds_id="GAWA",
      ds_accounts=[accounts[0].account_id],
      fields=["Date", "Sessions", "Users"],
      start_date="2024-01-01",
      end_date="2024-01-07"
  )

  print(f"Retrieved {result.row_count} rows")
  ```
  ```
- [x] Add "Examples" section linking to `examples/` directory:
  ```markdown
  ## Examples

  See the [examples/](./examples/) directory for complete working examples:

  - `complete_flow.py` - Full sync workflow from authentication to query execution
  - `async_flow.py` - Async version of complete workflow

  See [examples/README.md](./examples/README.md) for setup and running instructions.
  ```
- [x] Add "Error Handling" section:
  ```markdown
  ## Error Handling

  The SDK provides specific exception types for different error scenarios:

  ```python
  from supermetrics_sdk import SupermetricsClient, AuthenticationError, ValidationError, APIError, NetworkError

  client = SupermetricsClient(api_key="your_key")

  try:
      link = client.login_links.create(ds_id="GAWA", description="Test")
  except AuthenticationError:
      print("Invalid API key")
  except ValidationError:
      print("Invalid parameters")
  except APIError:
      print("API error")
  except NetworkError:
      print("Network error")
  ```
  ```
- [x] Add "Documentation" section placeholder:
  ```markdown
  ## Documentation

  - [Examples](./examples/) - Working code examples
  - [API Reference](./docs/) - Complete API documentation (coming in Epic 2)
  ```

### Task 5: Test examples manually (AC: 6)

## Dev Notes

### Architecture Alignment

**Complete Onboarding Workflow:**
```
1. Initialize Client
   ↓
2. Create Login Link (client.login_links.create)
   ↓
3. User Visits URL & Authenticates (external)
   ↓
4. Poll/Retrieve Login (client.logins.get or client.login_links.get)
   ↓
5. List Accounts (client.accounts.list)
   ↓
6. Execute Query (client.queries.execute)
   ↓
7. Handle Results (sync) or Poll Results (async queries)
```

[Source: tech-spec-epic-1.md - Workflows, lines 293-320]

**Example Structure:**
- Clear step-by-step progression
- Comments explaining what each step does and why
- Print statements showing progress
- Error handling with specific exception types
- Real-world timing (polling intervals, timeouts)

### POC Success Criteria

The POC is successful if:
1. **Functional**: Complete workflow executes without errors
2. **Type-Safe**: IDE provides autocomplete and type checking
3. **User-Friendly**: Clear error messages guide users to solutions
4. **Pythonic**: Code follows Python conventions and feels natural
5. **Documented**: Examples and README provide enough guidance to get started

### Example Best Practices

**Comments:**
- Explain WHAT each step does
- Explain WHY it's needed in the workflow
- Include tips for production usage
- Reference documentation for more details

**Print Statements:**
- Use ✓ and ❌ symbols for visual feedback
- Show key information (IDs, counts, status)
- Include progress indicators for long operations
- Format output for readability

**Error Handling:**
- Catch specific exception types
- Provide actionable error messages
- Suggest next steps for common errors
- Include context (status code, endpoint) in error output

**Production Notes:**
- Point out polling limitations (use webhooks instead)
- Mention security considerations (don't hardcode API keys)
- Suggest improvements (async for better performance)

### Testing Strategy

**Manual Testing:**
- Run examples with valid API key → should complete successfully
- Run with invalid API key → should show AuthenticationError
- Run with invalid parameters → should show ValidationError
- Test network errors → disconnect wifi, should show NetworkError

**Mock Testing (if no test credentials):**
- Create mock version that doesn't require real API
- Use httpx MockTransport or mock the client
- Verify example logic is correct even if API calls are mocked
