Manage automations with the API

Programmatic automation management with the Python API. Create and update may be affected on some client versions. Prefer the W&B App until the SDK fix ships.

Manage W&B automations programmatically with the wandb Python API when you script automation workflows instead of using the W&B App.

Programmatic create and update for automations through wandb.Api().create_automation() and related helpers can fail on some wandb Python client versions because of a client-side feature check (for example, run-state automations). Until a fixed SDK ships, use the W&B App to create and edit automations. The list, get, and delete methods aren’t affected. Internal tracking: WB-34263.
