Primitive options

qiskit_ibm_runtime.options

Options that can be passed to the Qiskit Runtime primitives.


V2 Primitives

SamplerV2 and EstimatorV2 each have their own options. You can use the options attribute to set the options. For example:

from qiskit_ibm_runtime import QiskitRuntimeService, EstimatorV2
 
service = QiskitRuntimeService()
backend = service.least_busy(operational=True, simulator=False)
estimator = EstimatorV2(mode=backend)
estimator.options.resilience_level = 1

You can also use the update() method to do bulk update. For example:

from qiskit_ibm_runtime import QiskitRuntimeService, EstimatorV2
 
service = QiskitRuntimeService()
backend = service.least_busy(operational=True, simulator=False)
estimator = EstimatorV2(mode=backend)
estimator.options.update(resilience_level=1)

Refer to SamplerOptions and EstimatorOptions for V2 Sampler and V2 Estimator options, respectively.

Note

If an option is not specified, the server default value is used. The default values are subject to change. Refer to this current module’s documentation for the latest defaults.
