Python 3.13/3.14 SyntaxWarning in v1 LogsPipelinesApi docstring #3535

Description

@JDProfresh

Describe the bug
Importing datadog_api_client.v1.api.logs_pipelines_api emits a SyntaxWarning on Python 3.13+ because the LogsPipelinesApi class docstring contains an unescaped regex sequence: \s.

The warning appears to come from this docstring text in src/datadog_api_client/v1/api/logs_pipelines_api.py:

that uses a regex pattern like ``\s`` for spaces, you will

Because Python docstrings are normal string literals, \s is parsed as an invalid escape sequence. Escaping it as \\s or generating the docstring as a raw string should avoid the warning.

To Reproduce
Run this with warnings enabled on Python 3.13 or 3.14:

python -W default -c "from datadog_api_client.v1.api.logs_pipelines_api import LogsPipelinesApi; print(ok)"

Observed output:

.../datadog_api_client/v1/api/logs_pipelines_api.py:38: SyntaxWarning: "\s" is an invalid escape sequence. Such sequences will not work in the future. Did you mean "\\s"? A raw string is also an option.
  """
ok

Expected behavior
Importing the SDK module should not emit warnings.

Screenshots
Not applicable.

Environment and Versions (please complete the following information):

  • datadog-api-client: observed locally with 2.54.0
  • Python: reproduced locally with Python 3.14.0rc2; expected to affect Python 3.13+ warning behavior
  • Module: datadog_api_client.v1.api.logs_pipelines_api
  • Repository master checked on 2026-05-17 still contains the same unescaped docstring sequence
  • Latest PyPI version observed on 2026-05-17: 2.55.0

Additional context
This surfaced when importing CLI code that depended on the Logs Pipelines API. The workaround on our side was to lazy-load this SDK module so unrelated CLI invocations do not emit SDK import warnings, but the underlying issue appears to be in the generated SDK docstring.
