# Messages ## Create **post** `/v1/messages` Send a structured list of input messages with text and/or image content, and the model will generate the next message in the conversation. The Messages API can be used for either single queries or stateless multi-turn conversations. Learn more about the Messages API in our [user guide](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/initial-setup) ### Header Parameters - `"anthropic-beta": optional array of AnthropicBeta` Optional header to specify the beta version(s) you want to use. - `UnionMember0 = string` - `UnionMember1 = "message-batches-2024-09-24" or "prompt-caching-2024-07-31" or "computer-use-2024-10-22" or 21 more` - `"message-batches-2024-09-24"` - `"prompt-caching-2024-07-31"` - `"computer-use-2024-10-22"` - `"computer-use-2025-01-24"` - `"pdfs-2024-09-25"` - `"token-counting-2024-11-01"` - `"token-efficient-tools-2025-02-19"` - `"output-128k-2025-02-19"` - `"files-api-2025-04-14"` - `"mcp-client-2025-04-04"` - `"mcp-client-2025-11-20"` - `"dev-full-thinking-2025-05-14"` - `"interleaved-thinking-2025-05-14"` - `"code-execution-2025-05-22"` - `"extended-cache-ttl-2025-04-11"` - `"context-1m-2025-08-07"` - `"context-management-2025-06-27"` - `"model-context-window-exceeded-2025-08-26"` - `"skills-2025-10-02"` - `"fast-mode-2026-02-01"` - `"output-300k-2026-03-24"` - `"user-profiles-2026-03-24"` - `"advisor-tool-2026-03-01"` - `"managed-agents-2026-04-01"` ### Body Parameters - `max_tokens: number` The maximum number of tokens to generate before stopping. Note that our models may stop _before_ reaching this maximum. This parameter only specifies the absolute maximum number of tokens to generate. Set to `0` to populate the [prompt cache](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/build-with-claude/prompt-caching#pre-warming-the-cache) without generating a response. Different models have different maximum values for this parameter. See [models](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/models-overview) for details. - `messages: array of BetaMessageParam` Input messages. Our models are trained to operate on alternating `user` and `assistant` conversational turns. When creating a new `Message`, you specify the prior conversational turns with the `messages` parameter, and the model then generates the next `Message` in the conversation. Consecutive `user` or `assistant` turns in your request will be combined into a single turn. Each input message must be an object with a `role` and `content`. You can specify a single `user`-role message, or you can include multiple `user` and `assistant` messages. If the final message uses the `assistant` role, the response content will continue immediately from the content in that message. This can be used to constrain part of the model's response. Example with a single `user` message: ```json [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"}] ``` Example with multiple conversational turns: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "Hello there."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Hi, I'm Claude. How can I help you?"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Can you explain LLMs in plain English?"}, ] ``` Example with a partially-filled response from Claude: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "What's the Greek name for Sun? (A) Sol (B) Helios (C) Sun"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The best answer is ("}, ] ``` Each input message `content` may be either a single `string` or an array of content blocks, where each block has a specific `type`. Using a `string` for `content` is shorthand for an array of one content block of type `"text"`. The following input messages are equivalent: ```json {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"} ``` ```json {"role": "user", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Hello, Claude"}]} ``` See [input examples](https://docs.claude.com/en/api/messages-examples). Note that if you want to include a [system prompt](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/system-prompts), you can use the top-level `system` parameter — there is no `"system"` role for input messages in the Messages API. There is a limit of 100,000 messages in a single request. - `content: string or array of BetaContentBlockParam` - `UnionMember0 = string` - `UnionMember1 = array of BetaContentBlockParam` - `BetaTextBlockParam = object { text, type, cache_control, citations }` - `text: string` - `type: "text"` - `"text"` - `cache_control: optional BetaCacheControlEphemeral` Create a cache control breakpoint at this content block. - `type: "ephemeral"` - `"ephemeral"` - `ttl: optional "5m" or "1h"` The time-to-live for the cache control breakpoint.

If you include `tools` in your API request, the model may return `tool_use` content blocks that represent the model's use of those tools. You can then run those tools using the tool input generated by the model and then optionally return results back to the model using `tool_result` content blocks. There are two types of tools: **client tools** and **server tools**. The behavior described below applies to client tools. For [server tools](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/tool-use/overview#server-tools), see their individual documentation as each has its own behavior (e.g., the [web search tool](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/tool-use/web-search-tool)). Each tool definition includes: * `name`: Name of the tool. * `description`: Optional, but strongly-recommended description of the tool. * `input_schema`: [JSON schema](https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12) for the tool `input` shape that the model will produce in `tool_use` output content blocks. For example, if you defined `tools` as: ```json [ { "name": "get_stock_price", "description": "Get the current stock price for a given ticker symbol.", "input_schema": { "type": "object", "properties": { "ticker": { "type": "string", "description": "The stock ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL for Apple Inc." } }, "required": ["ticker"] } } ] ``` And then asked the model "What's the S&P 500 at today?", the model might produce `tool_use` content blocks in the response like this: ```json [ { "type": "tool_use", "id": "toolu_01D7FLrfh4GYq7yT1ULFeyMV", "name": "get_stock_price", "input": { "ticker": "^GSPC" } } ] ``` You might then run your `get_stock_price` tool with `{"ticker": "^GSPC"}` as an input, and return the following back to the model in a subsequent `user` message: ```json [ { "type": "tool_result", "tool_use_id": "toolu_01D7FLrfh4GYq7yT1ULFeyMV", "content": "259.75 USD" } ] ``` Tools can be used for workflows that include running client-side tools and functions, or more generally whenever you want the model to produce a particular JSON structure of output. See our [guide](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/tool-use) for more details. - `BetaTool = object { input_schema, name, allowed_callers, 7 more }` - `input_schema: object { type, properties, required }` [JSON schema](https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12) for this tool's input.

Recommended for advanced use cases only. - `user_profile_id: optional string` The user profile ID to attribute this request to. Use when acting on behalf of a party other than your organization. ### Returns - `BetaMessage = object { id, container, content, 8 more }` - `id: string` Unique object identifier. The format and length of IDs may change over time. - `container: BetaContainer` Information about the container used in the request (for the code execution tool) - `id: string` Identifier for the container used in this request - `expires_at: string` The time at which the container will expire. - `skills: array of BetaSkill` Skills loaded in the container - `skill_id: string` Skill ID - `type: "anthropic" or "custom"` Type of skill - either 'anthropic' (built-in) or 'custom' (user-defined) - `"anthropic"` - `"custom"` - `version: string` Skill version or 'latest' for most recent version - `content: array of BetaContentBlock` Content generated by the model. This is an array of content blocks, each of which has a `type` that determines its shape. Example: ```json [{"type": "text", "text": "Hi, I'm Claude."}] ``` If the request input `messages` ended with an `assistant` turn, then the response `content` will continue directly from that last turn. You can use this to constrain the model's output. For example, if the input `messages` were: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "What's the Greek name for Sun? (A) Sol (B) Helios (C) Sun"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The best answer is ("} ] ``` Then the response `content` might be: ```json [{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}] ``` - `BetaTextBlock = object { citations, text, type }` - `citations: array of BetaTextCitation` Citations supporting the text block.

Anthropic's API bills and rate-limits by token counts, as tokens represent the underlying cost to our systems. Under the hood, the API transforms requests into a format suitable for the model. The model's output then goes through a parsing stage before becoming an API response. As a result, the token counts in `usage` will not match one-to-one with the exact visible content of an API request or response. For example, `output_tokens` will be non-zero, even for an empty string response from Claude. Total input tokens in a request is the summation of `input_tokens`, `cache_creation_input_tokens`, and `cache_read_input_tokens`. - `cache_creation: BetaCacheCreation` Breakdown of cached tokens by TTL - `ephemeral_1h_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 1 hour cache entry. - `ephemeral_5m_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 5 minute cache entry. - `cache_creation_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the cache entry. - `cache_read_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens read from the cache. - `inference_geo: string` The geographic region where inference was performed for this request. - `input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens which were used. - `iterations: BetaIterationsUsage` Per-iteration token usage breakdown.

Our models are trained to operate on alternating `user` and `assistant` conversational turns. When creating a new `Message`, you specify the prior conversational turns with the `messages` parameter, and the model then generates the next `Message` in the conversation. Consecutive `user` or `assistant` turns in your request will be combined into a single turn. Each input message must be an object with a `role` and `content`. You can specify a single `user`-role message, or you can include multiple `user` and `assistant` messages. If the final message uses the `assistant` role, the response content will continue immediately from the content in that message. This can be used to constrain part of the model's response. Example with a single `user` message: ```json [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"}] ``` Example with multiple conversational turns: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "Hello there."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Hi, I'm Claude. How can I help you?"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Can you explain LLMs in plain English?"}, ] ``` Example with a partially-filled response from Claude: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "What's the Greek name for Sun? (A) Sol (B) Helios (C) Sun"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The best answer is ("}, ] ``` Each input message `content` may be either a single `string` or an array of content blocks, where each block has a specific `type`. Using a `string` for `content` is shorthand for an array of one content block of type `"text"`. The following input messages are equivalent: ```json {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"} ``` ```json {"role": "user", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Hello, Claude"}]} ``` See [input examples](https://docs.claude.com/en/api/messages-examples). Note that if you want to include a [system prompt](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/system-prompts), you can use the top-level `system` parameter — there is no `"system"` role for input messages in the Messages API. There is a limit of 100,000 messages in a single request. - `content: string or array of BetaContentBlockParam` - `UnionMember0 = string` - `UnionMember1 = array of BetaContentBlockParam` - `BetaTextBlockParam = object { text, type, cache_control, citations }` - `text: string` - `type: "text"` - `"text"` - `cache_control: optional BetaCacheControlEphemeral` Create a cache control breakpoint at this content block. - `type: "ephemeral"` - `"ephemeral"` - `ttl: optional "5m" or "1h"` The time-to-live for the cache control breakpoint.

If you include `tools` in your API request, the model may return `tool_use` content blocks that represent the model's use of those tools. You can then run those tools using the tool input generated by the model and then optionally return results back to the model using `tool_result` content blocks. There are two types of tools: **client tools** and **server tools**. The behavior described below applies to client tools. For [server tools](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/tool-use/overview#server-tools), see their individual documentation as each has its own behavior (e.g., the [web search tool](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/tool-use/web-search-tool)). Each tool definition includes: * `name`: Name of the tool. * `description`: Optional, but strongly-recommended description of the tool. * `input_schema`: [JSON schema](https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12) for the tool `input` shape that the model will produce in `tool_use` output content blocks. For example, if you defined `tools` as: ```json [ { "name": "get_stock_price", "description": "Get the current stock price for a given ticker symbol.", "input_schema": { "type": "object", "properties": { "ticker": { "type": "string", "description": "The stock ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL for Apple Inc." } }, "required": ["ticker"] } } ] ``` And then asked the model "What's the S&P 500 at today?", the model might produce `tool_use` content blocks in the response like this: ```json [ { "type": "tool_use", "id": "toolu_01D7FLrfh4GYq7yT1ULFeyMV", "name": "get_stock_price", "input": { "ticker": "^GSPC" } } ] ``` You might then run your `get_stock_price` tool with `{"ticker": "^GSPC"}` as an input, and return the following back to the model in a subsequent `user` message: ```json [ { "type": "tool_result", "tool_use_id": "toolu_01D7FLrfh4GYq7yT1ULFeyMV", "content": "259.75 USD" } ] ``` Tools can be used for workflows that include running client-side tools and functions, or more generally whenever you want the model to produce a particular JSON structure of output. See our [guide](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/tool-use) for more details. - `BetaTool = object { input_schema, name, allowed_callers, 7 more }` - `input_schema: object { type, properties, required }` [JSON schema](https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12) for this tool's input. This defines the shape of the `input` that your tool accepts and that the model will produce. - `type: "object"` - `"object"` - `properties: optional map[unknown]` - `required: optional array of string` - `name: string` Name of the tool.

You can use natural language descriptions to reinforce important aspects of the tool input JSON schema. - `eager_input_streaming: optional boolean` Enable eager input streaming for this tool. When true, tool input parameters will be streamed incrementally as they are generated, and types will be inferred on-the-fly rather than buffering the full JSON output.

Anthropic's API bills and rate-limits by token counts, as tokens represent the underlying cost to our systems. Under the hood, the API transforms requests into a format suitable for the model. The model's output then goes through a parsing stage before becoming an API response. As a result, the token counts in `usage` will not match one-to-one with the exact visible content of an API request or response. For example, `output_tokens` will be non-zero, even for an empty string response from Claude.

Anthropic's API bills and rate-limits by token counts, as tokens represent the underlying cost to our systems. Under the hood, the API transforms requests into a format suitable for the model. The model's output then goes through a parsing stage before becoming an API response. As a result, the token counts in `usage` will not match one-to-one with the exact visible content of an API request or response. For example, `output_tokens` will be non-zero, even for an empty string response from Claude. Total input tokens in a request is the summation of `input_tokens`, `cache_creation_input_tokens`, and `cache_read_input_tokens`. - `cache_creation_input_tokens: number` The cumulative number of input tokens used to create the cache entry. - `cache_read_input_tokens: number` The cumulative number of input tokens read from the cache. - `input_tokens: number` The cumulative number of input tokens which were used. - `iterations: BetaIterationsUsage` Per-iteration token usage breakdown.

This is an array of content blocks, each of which has a `type` that determines its shape. Example: ```json [{"type": "text", "text": "Hi, I'm Claude."}] ``` If the request input `messages` ended with an `assistant` turn, then the response `content` will continue directly from that last turn. You can use this to constrain the model's output. For example, if the input `messages` were: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "What's the Greek name for Sun? (A) Sol (B) Helios (C) Sun"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The best answer is ("} ] ``` Then the response `content` might be: ```json [{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}] ``` - `BetaTextBlock = object { citations, text, type }` - `citations: array of BetaTextCitation` Citations supporting the text block. The type of citation returned will depend on the type of document being cited.

For Messages, this is always `"message"`. - `"message"` - `usage: BetaUsage` Billing and rate-limit usage. Anthropic's API bills and rate-limits by token counts, as tokens represent the underlying cost to our systems. Under the hood, the API transforms requests into a format suitable for the model. The model's output then goes through a parsing stage before becoming an API response. As a result, the token counts in `usage` will not match one-to-one with the exact visible content of an API request or response. For example, `output_tokens` will be non-zero, even for an empty string response from Claude. Total input tokens in a request is the summation of `input_tokens`, `cache_creation_input_tokens`, and `cache_read_input_tokens`. - `cache_creation: BetaCacheCreation` Breakdown of cached tokens by TTL - `ephemeral_1h_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 1 hour cache entry. - `ephemeral_5m_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 5 minute cache entry. - `cache_creation_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the cache entry. - `cache_read_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens read from the cache. - `inference_geo: string` The geographic region where inference was performed for this request. - `input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens which were used. - `iterations: BetaIterationsUsage` Per-iteration token usage breakdown.

This is an array of content blocks, each of which has a `type` that determines its shape. Example: ```json [{"type": "text", "text": "Hi, I'm Claude."}] ``` If the request input `messages` ended with an `assistant` turn, then the response `content` will continue directly from that last turn. You can use this to constrain the model's output. For example, if the input `messages` were: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "What's the Greek name for Sun? (A) Sol (B) Helios (C) Sun"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The best answer is ("} ] ``` Then the response `content` might be: ```json [{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}] ``` - `BetaTextBlock = object { citations, text, type }` - `citations: array of BetaTextCitation` Citations supporting the text block.

Anthropic's API bills and rate-limits by token counts, as tokens represent the underlying cost to our systems. Under the hood, the API transforms requests into a format suitable for the model. The model's output then goes through a parsing stage before becoming an API response. As a result, the token counts in `usage` will not match one-to-one with the exact visible content of an API request or response.

The Message Batches API can be used to process multiple Messages API requests at once. Once a Message Batch is created, it begins processing immediately. Batches can take up to 24 hours to complete. Learn more about the Message Batches API in our [user guide](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/build-with-claude/batch-processing) ### Header Parameters - `"anthropic-beta": optional array of AnthropicBeta` Optional header to specify the beta version(s) you want to use. - `UnionMember0 = string` - `UnionMember1 = "message-batches-2024-09-24" or "prompt-caching-2024-07-31" or "computer-use-2024-10-22" or 21 more` - `"message-batches-2024-09-24"` - `"prompt-caching-2024-07-31"` - `"computer-use-2024-10-22"` - `"computer-use-2025-01-24"` - `"pdfs-2024-09-25"` - `"token-counting-2024-11-01"` - `"token-efficient-tools-2025-02-19"` - `"output-128k-2025-02-19"` - `"files-api-2025-04-14"` - `"mcp-client-2025-04-04"` - `"mcp-client-2025-11-20"` - `"dev-full-thinking-2025-05-14"` - `"interleaved-thinking-2025-05-14"` - `"code-execution-2025-05-22"` - `"extended-cache-ttl-2025-04-11"` - `"context-1m-2025-08-07"` - `"context-management-2025-06-27"` - `"model-context-window-exceeded-2025-08-26"` - `"skills-2025-10-02"` - `"fast-mode-2026-02-01"` - `"output-300k-2026-03-24"` - `"user-profiles-2026-03-24"` - `"advisor-tool-2026-03-01"` - `"managed-agents-2026-04-01"` ### Body Parameters - `requests: array of object { custom_id, params }` List of requests for prompt completion. Each is an individual request to create a Message. - `custom_id: string` Developer-provided ID created for each request in a Message Batch. Useful for matching results to requests, as results may be given out of request order. Must be unique for each request within the Message Batch. - `params: object { max_tokens, messages, model, 20 more }` Messages API creation parameters for the individual request. See the [Messages API reference](https://docs.claude.com/en/api/messages) for full documentation on available parameters. - `max_tokens: number` The maximum number of tokens to generate before stopping. Note that our models may stop _before_ reaching this maximum. This parameter only specifies the absolute maximum number of tokens to generate. Set to `0` to populate the [prompt cache](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/build-with-claude/prompt-caching#pre-warming-the-cache) without generating a response. Different models have different maximum values for this parameter. See [models](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/models-overview) for details. - `messages: array of BetaMessageParam` Input messages. Our models are trained to operate on alternating `user` and `assistant` conversational turns. When creating a new `Message`, you specify the prior conversational turns with the `messages` parameter, and the model then generates the next `Message` in the conversation. Consecutive `user` or `assistant` turns in your request will be combined into a single turn. Each input message must be an object with a `role` and `content`. You can specify a single `user`-role message, or you can include multiple `user` and `assistant` messages. If the final message uses the `assistant` role, the response content will continue immediately from the content in that message. This can be used to constrain part of the model's response. Example with a single `user` message: ```json [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"}] ``` Example with multiple conversational turns: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "Hello there."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Hi, I'm Claude. How can I help you?"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Can you explain LLMs in plain English?"}, ] ``` Example with a partially-filled response from Claude: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "What's the Greek name for Sun? (A) Sol (B) Helios (C) Sun"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The best answer is ("}, ] ``` Each input message `content` may be either a single `string` or an array of content blocks, where each block has a specific `type`. Using a `string` for `content` is shorthand for an array of one content block of type `"text"`. The following input messages are equivalent: ```json {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"} ``` ```json {"role": "user", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Hello, Claude"}]} ``` See [input examples](https://docs.claude.com/en/api/messages-examples).

If you include `tools` in your API request, the model may return `tool_use` content blocks that represent the model's use of those tools. You can then run those tools using the tool input generated by the model and then optionally return results back to the model using `tool_result` content blocks. There are two types of tools: **client tools** and **server tools**. The behavior described below applies to client tools. For [server tools](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/tool-use/overview#server-tools), see their individual documentation as each has its own behavior (e.g., the [web search tool](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/tool-use/web-search-tool)). Each tool definition includes: * `name`: Name of the tool. * `description`: Optional, but strongly-recommended description of the tool. * `input_schema`: [JSON schema](https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12) for the tool `input` shape that the model will produce in `tool_use` output content blocks. For example, if you defined `tools` as: ```json [ { "name": "get_stock_price", "description": "Get the current stock price for a given ticker symbol.", "input_schema": { "type": "object", "properties": { "ticker": { "type": "string", "description": "The stock ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL for Apple Inc." } }, "required": ["ticker"] } } ] ``` And then asked the model "What's the S&P 500 at today?", the model might produce `tool_use` content blocks in the response like this: ```json [ { "type": "tool_use", "id": "toolu_01D7FLrfh4GYq7yT1ULFeyMV", "name": "get_stock_price", "input": { "ticker": "^GSPC" } } ] ``` You might then run your `get_stock_price` tool with `{"ticker": "^GSPC"}` as an input, and return the following back to the model in a subsequent `user` message: ```json [ { "type": "tool_result", "tool_use_id": "toolu_01D7FLrfh4GYq7yT1ULFeyMV", "content": "259.75 USD" } ] ``` Tools can be used for workflows that include running client-side tools and functions, or more generally whenever you want the model to produce a particular JSON structure of output. See our [guide](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/tool-use) for more details. - `BetaTool = object { input_schema, name, allowed_callers, 7 more }` - `input_schema: object { type, properties, required }` [JSON schema](https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12) for this tool's input.

You can use natural language descriptions to reinforce important aspects of the tool input JSON schema. - `eager_input_streaming: optional boolean` Enable eager input streaming for this tool. When true, tool input parameters will be streamed incrementally as they are generated, and types will be inferred on-the-fly rather than buffering the full JSON output.

Useful for matching results to requests, as results may be given out of request order. Must be unique for each request within the Message Batch. - `result: BetaMessageBatchResult` Processing result for this request. Contains a Message output if processing was successful, an error response if processing failed, or the reason why processing was not attempted, such as cancellation or expiration. - `BetaMessageBatchSucceededResult = object { message, type }` - `message: BetaMessage` - `id: string` Unique object identifier. The format and length of IDs may change over time. - `container: BetaContainer` Information about the container used in the request (for the code execution tool) - `id: string` Identifier for the container used in this request - `expires_at: string` The time at which the container will expire. - `skills: array of BetaSkill` Skills loaded in the container - `skill_id: string` Skill ID - `type: "anthropic" or "custom"` Type of skill - either 'anthropic' (built-in) or 'custom' (user-defined) - `"anthropic"` - `"custom"` - `version: string` Skill version or 'latest' for most recent version - `content: array of BetaContentBlock` Content generated by the model. This is an array of content blocks, each of which has a `type` that determines its shape. Example: ```json [{"type": "text", "text": "Hi, I'm Claude."}] ``` If the request input `messages` ended with an `assistant` turn, then the response `content` will continue directly from that last turn. You can use this to constrain the model's output. For example, if the input `messages` were: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "What's the Greek name for Sun? (A) Sol (B) Helios (C) Sun"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The best answer is ("} ] ``` Then the response `content` might be: ```json [{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}] ``` - `BetaTextBlock = object { citations, text, type }` - `citations: array of BetaTextCitation` Citations supporting the text block. The type of citation returned will depend on the type of document being cited.

Always equals the contents of `content[start_block_index:end_block_index]` joined together. The text block is the minimal citable unit; this field is never a substring of a single block. Not counted toward output tokens, and not counted toward input tokens when sent back in subsequent turns. - `document_index: number` - `document_title: string` - `end_block_index: number` Exclusive 0-based end index of the cited block range in the source's `content` array. Always greater than `start_block_index`; a single-block citation has `end_block_index = start_block_index + 1`. - `file_id: string` - `start_block_index: number` 0-based index of the first cited block in the source's `content` array. - `type: "content_block_location"` - `"content_block_location"` - `BetaCitationsWebSearchResultLocation = object { cited_text, encrypted_index, title, 2 more }` - `cited_text: string` - `encrypted_index: string` - `title: string` - `type: "web_search_result_location"` - `"web_search_result_location"` - `url: string` - `BetaCitationSearchResultLocation = object { cited_text, end_block_index, search_result_index, 4 more }` - `cited_text: string` The full text of the cited block range, concatenated.

For Messages, this is always `"message"`. - `"message"` - `usage: BetaUsage` Billing and rate-limit usage. Anthropic's API bills and rate-limits by token counts, as tokens represent the underlying cost to our systems. Under the hood, the API transforms requests into a format suitable for the model. The model's output then goes through a parsing stage before becoming an API response. As a result, the token counts in `usage` will not match one-to-one with the exact visible content of an API request or response. For example, `output_tokens` will be non-zero, even for an empty string response from Claude. Total input tokens in a request is the summation of `input_tokens`, `cache_creation_input_tokens`, and `cache_read_input_tokens`. - `cache_creation: BetaCacheCreation` Breakdown of cached tokens by TTL - `ephemeral_1h_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 1 hour cache entry. - `ephemeral_5m_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 5 minute cache entry. - `cache_creation_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the cache entry. - `cache_read_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens read from the cache. - `inference_geo: string` The geographic region where inference was performed for this request. - `input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens which were used. - `iterations: BetaIterationsUsage` Per-iteration token usage breakdown.

This is zero until processing of the entire Message Batch has ended. - `processing: number` Number of requests in the Message Batch that are processing. - `succeeded: number` Number of requests in the Message Batch that have completed successfully. This is zero until processing of the entire Message Batch has ended. - `results_url: string` URL to a `.jsonl` file containing the results of the Message Batch requests. Specified only once processing ends. Results in the file are not guaranteed to be in the same order as requests. Use the `custom_id` field to match results to requests. - `type: "message_batch"` Object type. For Message Batches, this is always `"message_batch"`. - `"message_batch"` ### Beta Message Batch Canceled Result - `BetaMessageBatchCanceledResult = object { type }` - `type: "canceled"` - `"canceled"` ### Beta Message Batch Errored Result - `BetaMessageBatchErroredResult = object { error, type }` - `error: BetaErrorResponse` - `error: BetaError` - `BetaInvalidRequestError = object { message, type }` - `message: string` - `type: "invalid_request_error"` - `"invalid_request_error"` - `BetaAuthenticationError = object { message, type }` - `message: string` - `type: "authentication_error"` - `"authentication_error"` - `BetaBillingError = object { message, type }` - `message: string` - `type: "billing_error"` - `"billing_error"` - `BetaPermissionError = object { message, type }` - `message: string` - `type: "permission_error"` - `"permission_error"` - `BetaNotFoundError = object { message, type }` - `message: string` - `type: "not_found_error"` - `"not_found_error"` - `BetaRateLimitError = object { message, type }` - `message: string` - `type: "rate_limit_error"` - `"rate_limit_error"` - `BetaGatewayTimeoutError = object { message, type }` - `message: string` - `type: "timeout_error"` - `"timeout_error"` - `BetaAPIError = object { message, type }` - `message: string` - `type: "api_error"` - `"api_error"` - `BetaOverloadedError = object { message, type }` - `message: string` - `type: "overloaded_error"` - `"overloaded_error"` - `request_id: string` - `type: "error"` - `"error"` - `type: "errored"` - `"errored"` ### Beta Message Batch Expired Result - `BetaMessageBatchExpiredResult = object { type }` - `type: "expired"` - `"expired"` ### Beta Message Batch Individual Response - `BetaMessageBatchIndividualResponse = object { custom_id, result }` This is a single line in the response `.jsonl` file and does not represent the response as a whole. - `custom_id: string` Developer-provided ID created for each request in a Message Batch. Useful for matching results to requests, as results may be given out of request order. Must be unique for each request within the Message Batch. - `result: BetaMessageBatchResult` Processing result for this request. Contains a Message output if processing was successful, an error response if processing failed, or the reason why processing was not attempted, such as cancellation or expiration. - `BetaMessageBatchSucceededResult = object { message, type }` - `message: BetaMessage` - `id: string` Unique object identifier. The format and length of IDs may change over time. - `container: BetaContainer` Information about the container used in the request (for the code execution tool) - `id: string` Identifier for the container used in this request - `expires_at: string` The time at which the container will expire. - `skills: array of BetaSkill` Skills loaded in the container - `skill_id: string` Skill ID - `type: "anthropic" or "custom"` Type of skill - either 'anthropic' (built-in) or 'custom' (user-defined) - `"anthropic"` - `"custom"` - `version: string` Skill version or 'latest' for most recent version - `content: array of BetaContentBlock` Content generated by the model. This is an array of content blocks, each of which has a `type` that determines its shape. Example: ```json [{"type": "text", "text": "Hi, I'm Claude."}] ``` If the request input `messages` ended with an `assistant` turn, then the response `content` will continue directly from that last turn. You can use this to constrain the model's output. For example, if the input `messages` were: ```json [ {"role": "user", "content": "What's the Greek name for Sun? (A) Sol (B) Helios (C) Sun"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The best answer is ("} ] ``` Then the response `content` might be: ```json [{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}] ``` - `BetaTextBlock = object { citations, text, type }` - `citations: array of BetaTextCitation` Citations supporting the text block. The type of citation returned will depend on the type of document being cited. Citing a PDF results in `page_location`, plain text results in `char_location`, and content document results in `content_block_location`. - `BetaCitationCharLocation = object { cited_text, document_index, document_title, 4 more }` - `cited_text: string` - `document_index: number` - `document_title: string` - `end_char_index: number` - `file_id: string` - `start_char_index: number` - `type: "char_location"` - `"char_location"` - `BetaCitationPageLocation = object { cited_text, document_index, document_title, 4 more }` - `cited_text: string` - `document_index: number` - `document_title: string` - `end_page_number: number` - `file_id: string` - `start_page_number: number` - `type: "page_location"` - `"page_location"` - `BetaCitationContentBlockLocation = object { cited_text, document_index, document_title, 4 more }` - `cited_text: string` The full text of the cited block range, concatenated. Always equals the contents of `content[start_block_index:end_block_index]` joined together. The text block is the minimal citable unit; this field is never a substring of a single block. Not counted toward output tokens, and not counted toward input tokens when sent back in subsequent turns. - `document_index: number` - `document_title: string` - `end_block_index: number` Exclusive 0-based end index of the cited block range in the source's `content` array. Always greater than `start_block_index`; a single-block citation has `end_block_index = start_block_index + 1`. - `file_id: string` - `start_block_index: number` 0-based index of the first cited block in the source's `content` array. - `type: "content_block_location"` - `"content_block_location"` - `BetaCitationsWebSearchResultLocation = object { cited_text, encrypted_index, title, 2 more }` - `cited_text: string` - `encrypted_index: string` - `title: string` - `type: "web_search_result_location"` - `"web_search_result_location"` - `url: string` - `BetaCitationSearchResultLocation = object { cited_text, end_block_index, search_result_index, 4 more }` - `cited_text: string` The full text of the cited block range, concatenated.

Not counted toward output tokens, and not counted toward input tokens when sent back in subsequent turns. - `end_block_index: number` Exclusive 0-based end index of the cited block range in the source's `content` array. Always greater than `start_block_index`; a single-block citation has `end_block_index = start_block_index + 1`. - `search_result_index: number` 0-based index of the cited search result among all `search_result` content blocks in the request, in the order they appear across messages and tool results. Counted separately from `document_index`; server-side web search results are not included in this count. - `source: string` - `start_block_index: number` 0-based index of the first cited block in the source's `content` array. -

Anthropic's API bills and rate-limits by token counts, as tokens represent the underlying cost to our systems. Under the hood, the API transforms requests into a format suitable for the model. The model's output then goes through a parsing stage before becoming an API response. As a result, the token counts in `usage` will not match one-to-one with the exact visible content of an API request or response. For example, `output_tokens` will be non-zero, even for an empty string response from Claude. Total input tokens in a request is the summation of `input_tokens`, `cache_creation_input_tokens`, and `cache_read_input_tokens`. - `cache_creation: BetaCacheCreation` Breakdown of cached tokens by TTL - `ephemeral_1h_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 1 hour cache entry. - `ephemeral_5m_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 5 minute cache entry. - `cache_creation_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the cache entry. - `cache_read_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens read from the cache. - `inference_geo: string` The geographic region where inference was performed for this request. - `input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens which were used. - `iterations: BetaIterationsUsage` Per-iteration token usage breakdown.

For Messages, this is always `"message"`. - `"message"` - `usage: BetaUsage` Billing and rate-limit usage. Anthropic's API bills and rate-limits by token counts, as tokens represent the underlying cost to our systems. Under the hood, the API transforms requests into a format suitable for the model. The model's output then goes through a parsing stage before becoming an API response. As a result, the token counts in `usage` will not match one-to-one with the exact visible content of an API request or response. For example, `output_tokens` will be non-zero, even for an empty string response from Claude. Total input tokens in a request is the summation of `input_tokens`, `cache_creation_input_tokens`, and `cache_read_input_tokens`. - `cache_creation: BetaCacheCreation` Breakdown of cached tokens by TTL - `ephemeral_1h_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 1 hour cache entry. - `ephemeral_5m_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 5 minute cache entry. - `cache_creation_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the cache entry. - `cache_read_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens read from the cache. - `inference_geo: string` The geographic region where inference was performed for this request. - `input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens which were used. - `iterations: BetaIterationsUsage` Per-iteration token usage breakdown.

For Messages, this is always `"message"`. - `"message"` - `usage: BetaUsage` Billing and rate-limit usage. Anthropic's API bills and rate-limits by token counts, as tokens represent the underlying cost to our systems. Under the hood, the API transforms requests into a format suitable for the model. The model's output then goes through a parsing stage before becoming an API response. As a result, the token counts in `usage` will not match one-to-one with the exact visible content of an API request or response. For example, `output_tokens` will be non-zero, even for an empty string response from Claude. Total input tokens in a request is the summation of `input_tokens`, `cache_creation_input_tokens`, and `cache_read_input_tokens`. - `cache_creation: BetaCacheCreation` Breakdown of cached tokens by TTL - `ephemeral_1h_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 1 hour cache entry. - `ephemeral_5m_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the 5 minute cache entry. - `cache_creation_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens used to create the cache entry. - `cache_read_input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens read from the cache. - `inference_geo: string` The geographic region where inference was performed for this request. - `input_tokens: number` The number of input tokens which were used. - `iterations: BetaIterationsUsage` Per-iteration token usage breakdown.
