GetDevice

Retrieves the devices available in Amazon Braket.

Note

For backwards compatibility with older versions of BraketSchemas, OpenQASM information is omitted from GetDevice API calls. To get this information the user-agent needs to present a recent version of the BraketSchemas (1.8.0 or later). The Braket SDK automatically reports this for you. If you do not see OpenQASM results in the GetDevice response when using a Braket SDK, you may need to set AWS_EXECUTION_ENV environment variable to configure user-agent. See the code examples provided below for how to do this for the AWS CLI, Boto3, and the Go, Java, and JavaScript/TypeScript SDKs.

Examples

Example

To set AWS_EXECUTION_ENV environment variable to configure user-agent when using the AWS CLI SDK:


% export AWS_EXECUTION_ENV="aws-cli BraketSchemas/1.8.0"
# Or for single execution
% AWS_EXECUTION_ENV="aws-cli BraketSchemas/1.8.0" aws braket <cmd> [options]

Example

To set AWS_EXECUTION_ENV environment variable to configure user-agent when using the Boto3:


import boto3
import botocore

client = boto3.client("braket", config=botocore.client.Config(user_agent_extra="BraketSchemas/1.8.0"))

Example

To set AWS_EXECUTION_ENV environment variable to configure user-agent when using the JavaScript/TypeScript (SDK v2):


import Braket from 'aws-sdk/clients/braket';
const client = new Braket({ region: 'us-west-2', credentials: AWS_CREDENTIALS, customUserAgent: 'BraketSchemas/1.8.0'  });

Example

To set AWS_EXECUTION_ENV environment variable to configure user-agent when using the JavaScript/TypeScript (SDK v3):


import { Braket } from '@aws-sdk/client-braket';
const client = new Braket({ region: 'us-west-2', credentials: AWS_CREDENTIALS, customUserAgent: 'BraketSchemas/1.8.0' });

Example

To set AWS_EXECUTION_ENV environment variable to configure user-agent when using the Go SDK:


os.Setenv("AWS_EXECUTION_ENV", "BraketGo BraketSchemas/1.8.0")
mySession := session.Must(session.NewSession())
svc := braket.New(mySession)

Example

To set AWS_EXECUTION_ENV environment variable to configure user-agent when using the Java SDK:


ClientConfiguration config = new ClientConfiguration();
config.setUserAgentSuffix("BraketSchemas/1.8.0");
BraketClient braketClient = BraketClientBuilder.standard().withClientConfiguration(config).build();
