Release 0.11.1 (Feb 24, 2026)

Summary

Added

• Added IonQJob.cost() method to retrieve job cost information from the IonQ API (#1121)

Improved / Modified

• Updated IonQ provider to use v0.4 API, including support for multi-circuit jobs, updated job status mappings (running → started), and enhanced measurement probability transformations (#1121)
• Added degraded status handling for IonQ devices (#1121)
• Refactored QbraidJob.result() to use qbraid_core.services.runtime.schemas.Result directly: removed dependency on ExperimentMetadata classes, added single ResultData.from_object(result, experiment_type) that builds from the core Result’s resultData, and pass time_stamps and cost through as Result details instead of metadata dump (#1123)
• Refactored ResultData subclasses to handle API camelCase keys (measurementCounts, numSolutions, etc.) in their from_dict implementations; GateModelResultData.from_dict now uses .get() and a known-keys filter instead of mutating a copy (#1123)
• QASM3-to-Braket conversion now supports QASM3 strings with physical qubits via a try/except workaround when PyQASM validation or transform fails (#1123)

Removed

• Removed qbraid.runtime.experiment module (ExperimentMetadata, GateModelExperimentMetadata, AnnealingExperimentMetadata, AhsExperimentMetadata) and related tests; native job results now rely on the core Result schema and ResultData.from_object only (#1123)

Fixed

• Fixed IonQ job submission to use updated API field names (target → backend) and proper job type specification (#1121)
• Fixed error mitigation parameter handling for IonQ jobs, now correctly nested under settings (#1121)

Dependencies

• Add upper bound on pulser-core and pulser-simulation dev dependencies to >=1.4.0,<1.7.0 (#1122)
• Increased upper bound on qbraid-qir dependency from <=0.5.0 to <=0.5.1 (#1123)

PRs Merged

• Update: IonQ provider for qbraid runtime with ionq v0.4 by @TheGupta2012 in #1121
• upper bound on pulser dep by @ryanhill1 in #1122
• Result data + platform v2 post-release updates by @ryanhill1 in #1123
• Bump project version to 0.11.1 by @github-actions[bot] in #1124

Full Changelog: v0.11.0...v0.11.1

Release 0.11.0 (Feb 8, 2026)

Summary

Improved / Modified

Introduced several changes primarily focused on standardizing program serialization using the new Program schema from qbraid-core, refactoring the analog/ahs program modules, and updating dependencies for compatibility with qBraid Platform V2:

• All serialize methods in program classes (analog, annealing, gate_model, etc.) now return a Program object from qbraid_core.services.runtime.schemas, replacing custom dictionary formats. This ensures a consistent API for program submission across all quantum program types.
• The ahs module has been renamed to analog, with all relevant class and import names updated (e.g., AHSEncoder → AnalogHamiltonianEncoder). This includes file renames and updates to __init__.py, ensuring clarity and alignment with terminology.
• The ExperimentType, JobStatus, and DeviceStatus enums are now imported directly from qbraid_core, removing the local definition and reducing duplication.

Dependencies

• Upgraded to qbraid-core>=0.2.0 to support qBraid Platform migration to V2 endpoints. See migration guide.

Release 0.10.2 (Feb 8, 2026)

Summary

Deprecated

• Deprecated qBraid V1 quantum jobs endpoints in favor of new V2 endpoints. See the API migration guide.

Which SDK version do I need?

Accessing legacy jobs: Download your jobs data from https://account-v2.qbraid.com/quantum-jobs, then use qBraid-SDK 0.10.2 to load and inspect results:

from qbraid.runtime import QbraidProvider, QbraidJob

provider = QbraidProvider(legacy_jobs_path="/path/to/legacy-qbraid-jobs.json")

job = QbraidJob("qbraid_device_id-jovyan-qjob-123abcmel6e9scpfm1zg", client=provider.client)

print(job.status())
# <COMPLETED: 'job has successfully run'>

result = job.result()

print(result.details["metadata"]["openQasm"])
# 'OPENQASM 2.0;\ninclude "qelib1.inc";\n\nqreg q[1];\ncreg c[1];\n\nmeasure q[0] -> c[0];'

print(result.data.get_counts())
# {'0': 99, '1': 1}

Submitting new jobs: As of February 8th, job submission via the native QbraidProvider requires qBraid-SDK 0.11.0 or later. Versions below 0.11.0 can no longer submit jobs to qBraid devices.

These changes apply only to job submission and management via the qBraid API. The AWS, Azure, IonQ, and OQC runtime providers are unaffected.

Full Changelog: v0.10.1...v0.10.2

Release 0.10.1 (Jan 14, 2025)

Summary

Added

• Added AzureQuantumDevice.avg_queue_time() method which returns int average queue time in min (#1097)

Improved / Modified

• Added a transformation for programs targeting IonQ devices, converting all i gates to rz(0). This transformation is useful because IonQ devices do not support the identity gate directly. (#1102)
• Updated number of shots used in Amazon Braket remote tests to minimum of 100 to match new lower bound of providers like IonQ (enforced by AWS, server-side) (#1089)
• Updated QASM2 to QASM3 transpiler weight from 0.7 to 1.0 to reflect improved conversion reliability. (#1082)
• For Amazon Braket devices, users can now use environment variables to define region name ("AWS_REGION") and endpoint url ("BRAKET_ENDPOINT"). This is useful when an application wraps over qBraid and does not have direct access to qBraid Provider class or AwsSession class. (#1100)

Removed

• Removed qbraid-core[runner] dependency from qbraid[qir] extra. The only additional package that was being installed was psutil in order to support a function that tracks memory usage during a subprocess call to qir-runner. But people are mainly interested in this "extra" for the qbraid-qir conversions, and since this is outside of that scope, better to take it out and keep the dependencies lean. (#1083)

Fixed

• Fixed OQCDevice.get_next_window() method with more robust ISO datetime string handling (#1097)
• Fixed BraketQuantumTask.result() to correctly handle AnalogHamiltonianSimulationQuantumTaskResult given the fact the partial measurement qubits aren't applicable to that job/result type. (#1097)
• Fixed OQC runtime tests by padding the date-time month/day with leading zero to ensure valid ISO format (#1103)

Dependencies

• Updated qbraid-core requirement from >=0.1.39 to >=0.1.44,<0.2.0 (#1108)

Release 0.9.9 (Sept 1, 2025)

Summary

Added

• Added opaque runtime_options (dict) argument to QbraidDevice.submit() to include in job payload (#1017)
• Added Equal1SimulationMetadata and Equal1SimulatorResultData classes to support processing of Equal 1 simulator v0.2.2 job data including base64 encoded "compiledOut" (#1017)

Improved / Modified

• Skip remote Azure provider tests that now require payed plan (#1024)
• Adds support for partial measurements on IonQ and Amazon Braket devices by automatically padding circuits with measurements on all qubits while tracking and filtering results to show only the originally measured qubits. (#1028)
• Replaced execution_mode and device_name fields in the Equal1SimulationMetadata class with ir_type and noise_model to match data returned by Equal1 simulator v0.3.0 (#1035)
• Moved decoding logic from Equal1SimulatorResultData class to the Equal1SimulationMetadata schema, ensuring that compiled outputs are automatically decoded when metadata is instantiated. For equal1_simulator jobs, the base64 decoded compiled output will now be accessible from a Result object as follows (#1040):

result = job.result()

compiled_output = result.details['metadata']['compiledOutput']

Removed

• Removed benchmarking module from tests as not relevant or used (#1026)

Fixed

• Fixed bug that returned a single job instead of a list of jobs after batch job submission in the native provider runtime for QuEra Aquila using Bloqade Analog (#1026)
• Fixed the boto3.client initialization by adding the region_name parameter in _get_partial_measurement_qubits_from_tags method (#1034)
• Fixed bug that resulted in AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'service' when checking BraketDevice.availability_window(). Now ensures that AwsDevice.properties is defined using refresh_metadata() before proceeding with availability check. (#1041)

Release 0.9.8 (Jul 22, 2025)

Summary

Improved / Modified

• Removed legacy pkg_resources logic for loading entry points (qbraid._entrypoints), as support for Python 3.9 has been dropped and the project now requires Python 3.10 or higher. (#1002)
• Populated basis gates property in profile of AWS Braket provider device (#1003)
• Emit a UserWarning instead of raising a ValueError when checking for the sum of result probabilities from job to be equal
  to 1 (#1004).
• House keeping updates (#1012)

Full Changelog: v0.9.7...v0.9.8

Release 0.9.7 (June 13, 2025)

Summary

Added

• Added CudaQKernel.serialize method that converts cudaq program to QIR string for run_input compatible format for QbraidDevice.submit. (#972)
• Added support for batch jobs for devices from Azure provider. The AzureQuantumDevice.submit method now accepts single and batched qbraid.programs.QPROGRAM inputs. (#953)
• Added ax_margins argument to plot_conversion_graph to prevent possible clipping. (#993)

Improved / Modified

• Updated TimeStamps schema to auto-compute executionDuration from createdAt and endedAt if not explicitly provided. (#983)
• Enhanced TimeStamps to accept both datetime.datetime objects for createdAt and endedAt (previously only accepted ISO-formatted strings). (#983)
• Added a measurement_probabilties argument to the GateModelResultData class. (#785)

Removed

• Removed queue_position from result details, as it is always None and not applicable. (#983)

Fixed

• Fixed lazy importing bug in plot_histogram method (#972)
• Fixed bug which caused all braket conversions to be unavailable if cirq was not installed due to an eager top-level import in braket_to_cirq.py which should have been done lazily (#982)
• Made Pulser unit test version-agnostic to support any installed Pulser version. (#983)
• Fixed the bug that included unregistered program type in ConversionGraph. (#986)

Dependencies

• Migrated to setuptools>=77 due to TOML-table based project.license deprecation in favor of SPDX expression in compliance with PEP 639 (#973)

Full Changelog: v0.9.6...v0.9.7

Release 0.9.6 (May 2, 2025)

Summary

Added

• Added QbraidJob.async_result() to support async result retrieval using await. (#945)
• Added QbraidDevice.set_target_program_type, allowing you to set a specific ProgramSpec (from TargetProfile) alias as the default (#952). For example, if a device supports both "qasm2" and "qasm3", you can now restrict transpilation to one format:

from qbraid.runtime import IonQProvider

provider = IonQProvider()

device = provider.get_device("simulator")

device.metadata()["runtime_config"]["target_program_type"] # ['qasm2', 'qasm3']

device.set_target_program_type("qasm2")

device.metadata()["runtime_config"]["target_program_type"] # 'qasm2'

However the original TargetProfile.program_spec value remains frozen:

device.profile.program_spec
# [<ProgramSpec('builtins.str', 'qasm2')>,
#  <ProgramSpec('builtins.str', 'qasm3')>]

• Added support for Pasqal devices through the AzureQuantumProvider with pulser program type (#947). For example:

import numpy as np
import pulser
from azure.quantum import Workspace
from qbraid.runtime import AzureQuantumProvider

connection_string = "[Your connection string here]"
workspace = Workspace.from_connection_string(connection_string)

provider = AzureQuantumProvider(workspace=workspace)

input_data = {}

qubits = {
    "q0": (0, 0),
    "q1": (0, 10),
    "q2": (8, 2),
    "q3": (1, 15),
    "q4": (-10, -3),
    "q5": (-8, 5),
}
register = pulser.Register(qubits)

sequence = pulser.Sequence(register, pulser.DigitalAnalogDevice)
sequence.declare_channel("ch0", "rydberg_global")

amp_wf = pulser.BlackmanWaveform(1000, np.pi)
det_wf = pulser.RampWaveform(1000, -5, 5)
pulse = pulser.Pulse(amp_wf, det_wf, 0)
sequence.add(pulse, "ch0")

device = provider.get_device("pasqal.sim.emu-tn")

job = device.run(sequence, shots=1)

job.wait_for_final_state()

job.status()  # <COMPLETED: 'job has successfully run'>

result = job.result()

result.data.get_counts()  # {'100110': 1}

• Added support for transpiling between pyqpanda3 and QASM2 with pyqpanda3 program type (#963)

Improved / Modified

• Prepped tests for supporting qiskit>=2.0 (#955)
• Updated the qbraid.runtime.aws.BraketProvider to include an aws_session_token during initialization. Users can now choose to supply their temporary AWS credentials instead of permanent account secrets to access AWS - (#968)

from qbraid.runtime.aws import BraketProvider

aws_access_key = "YOUR_TEMP_ACCESS_KEY"
aws_secret_key = "YOUR_TEMP_SECRET_KEY"
aws_session_token = "YOUR_CURRENT_SESSION_TOKEN"

provider = BraketProvider(aws_access_key, aws_secret_key, aws_session_token)
