+# Seldon Python Client
+
+We provide an example python client for calling the API using REST or gRPC for internal mciroservice testing or for calling the public external API.
+
+Examples of its use can be found in various notebooks:
+
+  * [Helm based deployment examples](../examples/helm_examples.html)
+  * [Istio examples](../examples/istio_examples.html)
+
+To use the client simply create an instance with settings for your use case, for example:
+
+```
+from seldon_core.seldon_client import SeldonClient
+sc = SeldonClient(deployment_name="mymodel",namespace="seldon",gateway_endpoint="localhost:8003",gateway="ambassador")
+```
+
+In the above we set our deployment_name to "mymodel" and the namespace to "seldon". For the full set of parameters see [here](api/seldon_core.html#seldon_core.seldon_client.SeldonClient)
+
+To make a REST call with a random payload:
+
+```
+r = sc.predict(transport="rest")
+```
+
+To make a gRPC call with random payload:
+
+```
+r = sc.predict(transport="grpc")
+```
+
