# Benchling Integration ## Overview Benchling is a cloud platform for life sciences R&D. Access registry entities (DNA, RNA, proteins), inventory, electronic lab notebooks, and workflows programmatically via the Python SDK and REST API. **Version note:** Examples target **benchling-sdk 1.25.0** (latest stable on PyPI). Docs: [benchling.com/sdk-docs](https://benchling.com/sdk-docs/). Platform guide: [docs.benchling.com](https://docs.benchling.com/). ## When to Use This Skill This skill should be used when: - Working with Benchling's Python SDK or REST API - Managing biological sequences (DNA, RNA, proteins) and registry entities - Automating inventory operations (samples, containers, locations, transfers) - Creating or querying electronic lab notebook entries - Building workflow automations or Benchling Apps - Syncing data between Benchling and external systems - Querying the Benchling Data Warehouse for analytics - Setting up event-driven integrations with AWS EventBridge ## Core Capabilities ### 1. Authentication & Setup **Python SDK installation:** ```bash uv pip install "benchling-sdk==1.25.0" ``` Preview builds (alpha; not for production): ```bash uv pip install "benchling-sdk" --prerelease allow ``` **Environment variables (scoped reads only):** Read only the named keys you need — never dump or iterate over the full environment: ```python import os tenant_url = os.environ.get("BENCHLING_TENANT_URL") # e.g. https://your-tenant.benchling.com api_key = os.en
