Python SDK v1.0.2: virtual objects in scope API

[mintlify]

Python SDK v1.0.2

Scope API for virtual objects — ctx.scope("...").object_call(...) and ctx.scope("...").object_send(...) are now available in the Python SDK, bringing virtual objects to parity with services and workflows in the flow-control scope API. Scoped virtual object calls require RESTATE_EXPERIMENTAL_ENABLE_SCOPED_VIRTUAL_OBJECTS=true on the server.

Changes

• docs/develop/python/service-communication.mdx: Added object_call and object_send to the scope code example, with a comment noting the required server flag.
• docs/changelog/python-sdk.mdx: Added v1.0.2 changelog entry.
