IDAPython

IDAPython allows you to use the Python code in IDA to write scripts and customize basic IDA functionality. It offers more advanced and powerful automation than the IDC language and gives you access to Python modules and native Python abilities to interact with our API.

Typical use cases

When you are asking yourself how to automate work in IDA, like renaming variables or performing custom analyses, the IDAPython API comes in handy. You can use simple code snippets directly inside the IDA output window to perform specific tasks or more advanced scripts for complex usage. Moreover, with IDAPython, you can write plugins to expand basic IDA capabilities even further.
