# mstrio-py: Simple and Secure Access to Strategy One Data

<!-- tox:docs:2: installation :start -->

## Installation

### Prerequisites

- Python in version 3.10.x, 3.11.x, 3.12.x or 3.13.x
- MicroStrategy 2019 Update 4 (11.1.4)+

### Install `mstrio-py` Package

> **Note**: it is NOT recommended to install mstrio-py in an **Anaconda** environment.
> For a seamless experience, install and run it in Python's [virtual environment][python_venv] instead.

Install latest version of [mstrio-py](https://pypi.org/project/mstrio-py) using `pip` command in Terminal:

```bash
pip install mstrio-py
```

To install a specific, archived version of mstrio, choose the desired version available on [PyPI package archive][pypi_archive] and install with `pip`, as follows:

```bash
pip install mstrio-py==10.11.1
```

### Issues or specific use cases

If there are any issues with the installation process it is possible your setup may differ from usual.
In that case, please see below some examples of most common situations and how to resolve them.

In all other cases, please refer to the [official Python libraries installation guide](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/tutorials/installing-packages/).

#### Offline System or Proxy with Blacklisted `PyPI`

> **Note**: optimally, you should contact your system administrator and either request access to `PyPI` or some proxy setup whitelisting all or some of the `PyPI` libraries.

If your setup does not allow to get packages online directly from Python Packages Index (PyPI) using `pip`, you can download the package manually and install it locally.

1. download `.whl` file from here: <https://pypi.org/project/mstrio-py/#files>
1. in the terminal `cd` into a folder where you want to install _mstrio-py_
1. use the command provided below after filling the path
   - `py -m` tells the terminal to use default install execution of python available locally on the machine
   - `--user` flag says "install only for my user on this machine"
1. If you have issues with `py` command, try the same with `python` instead

```bash
cd path/where/mstrio/will/be/installed
py -m pip install --user path/to/downloaded/wheel/file/mstrio-py.whl
```

#### No Python or `pip` Installed on the Machine

You cannot use `mstrio-py` without Python installed on your machine unless directly via **Strategy Workstation**.

## Versioning & Changelog

Current version: **11.6.2.101** (13 February 2026). Check out [CHANGELOG][release_notes] to see what's new.

`mstrio-py` is constantly developed to support newest Strategy One REST APIs. Functionalities may be added to mstrio on monthly basis. It is **recommended** to always install the newest version of mstrio-py, as it will be most stable and still maintain backwards compatibility with various Strategy One installations, dating back to 11.1.4.

Features that will be added to the package but require APIs not supported by your environment (I-Server), will raise `VersionException`.

`mstrio-py` can be used for both, **data-science** related activities and for **administrative tasks**. Former requires at least MicroStrategy 2019 Update 4 (11.1.4), latter works with 11.2.1 and higher.

If you intend to use mstrio with MicroStrategy 2019 Update 3 (11.1.3) or older, refer to the PyPI package archive to download mstrio 10.11.1, which is supported on:

- MicroStrategy 2019 (11.1)
- MicroStrategy 2019 Update 1 (11.1.1)
- MicroStrategy 2019 Update 2 (11.1.2)
- MicroStrategy 2019 Update 3 (11.1.3)

Refer to the [PyPI package archive][pypi_archive] for a list of available versions.
