+# PyPI API
+This is the API documentation for [PyPI Packages](../../user/packages/pypi_repository/index.md).
+WARNING:
+This API is used by the [PyPI package manager client](https://pypi.apache.org/)
+and is generally not meant for manual consumption.
+For instructions on how to upload and install PyPI packages from the GitLab
+package registry, see the [PyPI package registry documentation](../../user/packages/pypi_repository/index.md).
+NOTE:
+These endpoints do not adhere to the standard API authentication methods.
+See the [PyPI package registry documentation](../../user/packages/pypi_repository/index.md)
+for details on which headers and token types are supported.
+## Download a package file
+> Introduced in GitLab 12.10.
+Download a PyPI package file. The [simple API](#simple-api-entry-point)
+normally supplies this URL.
+```plaintext
+GET projects/:id/packages/pypi/files/:sha256/:file_identifier
+```
+| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
+| --------- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
+| `id`              | string | yes | The ID or full path of the project. |
+| `sha256`          | string | yes | PyPI package file sha256 check sum. |
+| `file_identifier` | string | yes | The PyPI package file name. |
+```shell
+curl --user <username>:<personal_access_token> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/pypi/files/5y57017232013c8ac80647f4ca153k3726f6cba62d055cd747844ed95b3c65ff/my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz"
+```
+To write the output to a file:
+```shell
+curl --user <username>:<personal_access_token> "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/1/packages/pypi/files/5y57017232013c8ac80647f4ca153k3726f6cba62d055cd747844ed95b3c65ff/my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz" >> my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz
+```
+This writes the downloaded file to `my.pypi.package-0.0.1.tar.gz` in the current directory.
