pip install tencentcloud-sdk-python-afc

Common errors

error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tencentcloud' ↓

cause Base 'tencentcloud-sdk-python' package not installed.

fix

Run: pip install tencentcloud-sdk-python-afc (it depends on the base package automatically)

error AttributeError: module 'tencentcloud.afc' has no attribute 'afc_client' ↓

cause Incorrect import path; missing versioned subpackage.

fix

Use: from tencentcloud.afc.v20200226 import afc_client

error tencentcloud.common.exception.TencentCloudSDKException: [TencentCloudSDKException] code: AuthFailure.SecretIdNotFound ↓

cause Invalid or missing secret ID/secret key.

fix

Set environment variables TENCENTCLOUD_SECRET_ID and TENCENTCLOUD_SECRET_KEY, or pass credentials directly.

Warnings

gotcha SDK v3 uses versioned subpackages (e.g., v20200226). Older examples may reference 'afc_client' directly under 'tencentcloud.afc' which is incorrect. ↓

fix Use the full versioned import path: `from tencentcloud.afc.v20200226 import afc_client, models`

gotcha Region must be specified when creating the client. Default is 'ap-guangzhou'. Some services require a specific region; check Tencent Cloud documentation. ↓

fix Always pass a region string (e.g., 'ap-guangzhou', 'ap-beijing') to the client constructor.

breaking Request and response models changed in v3. v2-style direct dictionary access is deprecated. Use model attributes. ↓

fix Instantiate request models with keyword arguments: `req = models.QueryAntiFraudVipRequest(PhoneNumber='12345678901')` instead of dict assignment.

Imports

AfcClient
wrong
```
from tencentcloud.afc import AfcClient
```
correct
```
from tencentcloud.afc.v20200226 import afc_client
```
The SDK uses versioned subpackages. 'afc' alone is ambiguous; the correct import includes the API version (v20200226).

models

wrong

from tencentcloud.afc import models

correct

from tencentcloud.afc.v20200226 import models

Module 'models' is under the versioned path.

Quickstart

Instantiate the AfcClient with credentials and region, then call QueryAntiFraudVip.

import os
from tencentcloud.common import credential
from tencentcloud.afc.v20200226 import afc_client, models

try:
    cred = credential.Credential(
        os.environ.get('TENCENTCLOUD_SECRET_ID'),
        os.environ.get('TENCENTCLOUD_SECRET_KEY')
    )
    client = afc_client.AfcClient(cred, 'ap-guangzhou')
    req = models.QueryAntiFraudVipRequest()
    req.PhoneNumber = '12345678901'
    resp = client.QueryAntiFraudVip(req)
    print(resp)
except Exception as e:
    print(e)
