To help familiarize yourself with the Tealium library, the tracking methods, and best practice implementation, see the Python sample script.

Install

To install the Tealium library for Python:

1. Determine which version of Python you are using with the following command:

   python -V

2. Run the following pip command:

   Python 2

   pip install tealium

   Python 3

   pip3 install tealium

Initialize

Import the module and initialize the Tealium instance with the Tealium() constructor, as shown in the following example:

from tealium import Tealium
teal = Tealium("ACCOUNT", "PROFILE", "ENVIRONMENT", "DATASOURCE")

As of version 2.0.0, visitorId, sessionId, local storage and vdata dispatcher has been removed. All Collect module requests are now sent as POST requests to the /event endpoint. The Tealium initializer no longer has a PATH parameter.
