qbraid.runtime.ibm.QiskitRuntimeProvider

class QiskitRuntimeProvider(token=None, instance=None, channel=None, **kwargs)[source]

This class is responsible for managing the interactions and authentications with the IBM Quantum services.

runtime_service

IBM Quantum runtime service.

Type:

qiskit_ibm_runtime.QiskitRuntimeService

Initializes the QiskitRuntimeProvider object with IBM Quantum credentials.

Parameters:

  • token (str, optional) – IBM Cloud API key or IBM Quantum API token.

  • instance (str, optional) – The service instance to use. For ibm_cloud, this is the Cloud Resource Name (CRN) or the service name. For ibm_quantum, this is the hub/group/project in that format.

  • channel (ChannelType, optional) – ibm_cloud, ibm_quantum or local. If local, uses testing mode and primitive queries will run on local simulator.

__init__(token=None, instance=None, channel=None, **kwargs)[source]

Initializes the QiskitRuntimeProvider object with IBM Quantum credentials.

Parameters:

  • token (str, optional) – IBM Cloud API key or IBM Quantum API token.

  • instance (str, optional) – The service instance to use. For ibm_cloud, this is the Cloud Resource Name (CRN) or the service name. For ibm_quantum, this is the hub/group/project in that format.

  • channel (ChannelType, optional) – ibm_cloud, ibm_quantum or local. If local, uses testing mode and primitive queries will run on local simulator.
