Hello,

There is no Python API for Dimensions.
You can create a request using Java API, there is an example available in "[serverInstallationPath]\java_api\examples\CreateRequest.java".
Though for using from your Python app it could be easier to create a request via command line (DMLCI application), say this way:

dmcli.exe -param dmcli.param -file dmcli.cmds

where dmcli.param file contains connection parameters, say:

-user myUserID
-pass myUserPassword
-host myCMserverHost
-dbname cm_typical
-dsn dim15

and dmcli.cmds file contains the list of commands necessary for execution, say for BR type request creation:

CC "QLARIUS" "BR" /ATTRIBUTES=(Title="MyRequest")

Regards,
Alex
