Classes

SyncServerlessClient

class fal.api.SyncServerlessClient

Synchronous Python client for fal Serverless. Manage apps, runners, and deployments programmatically. The namespaces and methods mirror the CLI so you can automate the same workflows from Python. Example:

from fal.api import SyncServerlessClient

client = SyncServerlessClient()

# List apps
apps = client.apps.list()

# Scale an app
client.apps.scale("my-app", max_concurrency=10)

# Deploy
client.deploy("path/to/myfile.py::MyApp")

Namespaces:

client.apps.* - corresponds to fal apps ...
client.runners.* - corresponds to fal runners ...
client.keys.* - corresponds to fal keys ...
client.secrets.* - corresponds to fal secrets ...
client.deploy() - corresponds to fal deploy ...

# Deploy a specific class
client.deploy("path/to/myfile.py::MyApp")

# With options
client.deploy(
