Utilities
=========
.. warning::
These components are *not* intended for outside use, but are internal to
the Globus SDK.
They may change in backwards-incompatible ways in minor or patch releases
of the SDK.
This documentation is included here for completeness.
MissingType and MISSING
-----------------------
The ``MISSING`` sentinel value is used as an alternative to ``None`` in APIs
which accept ``null`` as a valid value. Whenever ``MISSING`` is included in a
request, it will be removed before the request is sent to the service.
As a result, where ``MISSING`` is used as the default for a value, ``None`` can
be used to explicitly pass the value ``null``.
.. py:class:: globus_sdk.MissingType
This is the type of ``MISSING``.
.. py:data:: globus_sdk.MISSING
The ``MISSING`` sentinel value. It is a singleton.
