Create a Job

API keys are associated with a user and can be created on the IonQ Quantum Cloud application. To authenticate, prefix your API Key with apiKey and place it in the Authorization request header. Ex: Authorization: apiKey your-api-key

A job name.

User defined metadata.

How many times to execute your circuit when submitting to a QPU or a "non-ideal" noisy simulator.

Target hardware for job to run on.

When the target is "simulator", this field specifies optional noise parameters for simulation. (If these noise parameters are not provided, simulations will run on an ideal quantum computer model, without noise.) This field does not apply to qpu.* targets. When a noise model is applied, the simulator qubit limit is inherited from the modeled QPU's qubit limit. (This limit does not apply to the ideal quantum computer simulator. Please refer to the current qubit limit of the ideal quantum computer simulator.)

Input for creating a job via a Quantum Program

Which error mitigation methods to apply to this circuit. This may affect how the job is compiled, and what configuration can be used to fetch results.

The UUID of a job. We'll provide the UUID initially in our response to a job creation request.

Status of a job (always ready).
