Content generated by the model.
This is an array of content blocks, each of which has a type that determines its shape.
Example:
[{"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:
[
{"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:
[{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}]

The reason that we stopped.
This may be one the following values:
"end_turn": the model reached a natural stopping point"max_tokens": we exceeded the requestedmax_tokensor the model's maximum"stop_sequence": one of your provided customstop_sequenceswas generated"tool_use": the model invoked one or more tools"pause_turn": we paused a long-running turn. You may provide the response back as-is in a subsequent request to let the model continue."refusal": when streaming classifiers intervene to handle potential policy violations
In non-streaming mode this value is always non-null. In streaming mode, it is null in the message_start event and non-null otherwise.
stopSequence: Optional<String>
Which custom stop sequence was generated, if any.
This value will be a non-null string if one of your custom stop sequences was generated.
type: JsonValue; "message"constant"message"constant
Object type.
For Messages, this is always "message".
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.

type: JsonValue; "message_delta"constant"message_delta"constant
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.
cacheCreationInputTokens: Optional<Long>
The cumulative number of input tokens used to create the cache entry.
cacheReadInputTokens: Optional<Long>

This is an array of content blocks, each of which has a type that determines its shape.
Example:
[{"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:
[
{"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:
[{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}]

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.

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.
cacheCreationInputTokens: Optional<Long>
The cumulative number of input tokens used to create the cache entry.
cacheReadInputTokens: Optional<Long>
The cumulative number of input tokens read from the cache.
inputTokens: Optional<Long>
The cumulative number of input tokens which were used.
outputTokens: Long

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.
class BetaMessageBatchSucceededResult:
id: String
Unique object identifier.
The format and length of IDs may change over time.
Information about the container used in the request (for the code execution tool)
id: String
Identifier for the container used in this request
expiresAt: LocalDateTime
The time at which the container will expire.
Skills loaded in the container
skillId: String
Skill ID
type: Type

Content generated by the model.
This is an array of content blocks, each of which has a type that determines its shape.
Example:
[{"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:
[
{"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:
[{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}]

role: JsonValue; "assistant"constant"assistant"constant
Conversational role of the generated message.
This will always be "assistant".
The reason that we stopped.
This may be one the following values:
"end_turn": the model reached a natural stopping point"max_tokens": we exceeded the requestedmax_tokensor the model's maximum"stop_sequence": one of your provided customstop_sequenceswas generated"tool_use": the model invoked one or more tools"pause_turn": we paused a long-running turn. You may provide the response back as-is in a subsequent request to let the model continue."refusal": when streaming classifiers intervene to handle potential policy violations
In non-streaming mode this value is always non-null. In streaming mode, it is null in the message_start event and non-null otherwise.
stopSequence: Optional<String>
Which custom stop sequence was generated, if any.
This value will be a non-null string if one of your custom stop sequences was generated.
type: JsonValue; "message"constant"message"constant
Object type.
For Messages, this is always "message".
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.
Breakdown of cached tokens by TTL
ephemeral1hInputTokens: Long

"end_turn": the model reached a natural stopping point"max_tokens": we exceeded the requestedmax_tokensor the model's maximum"stop_sequence": one of your provided customstop_sequenceswas generated"tool_use": the model invoked one or more tools"pause_turn": we paused a long-running turn. You may provide the response back as-is in a subsequent request to let the model continue."refusal": when streaming classifiers intervene to handle potential policy violations
In non-streaming mode this value is always non-null. In streaming mode, it is null in the message_start event and non-null otherwise.
stopSequence: Optional<String>
Which custom stop sequence was generated, if any.
This value will be a non-null string if one of your custom stop sequences was generated.
type: JsonValue; "message"constant"message"constant
Object type.
For Messages, this is always "message".
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.
Breakdown of cached tokens by TTL
ephemeral1hInputTokens: Long
The number of input tokens used to create the 1 hour cache entry.
ephemeral5mInputTokens: Long
The number of input tokens used to create the 5 minute cache entry.
cacheCreationInputTokens: Optional<Long>
The number of input tokens used to create the cache entry.
cacheReadInputTokens: Optional<Long>
The number of input tokens read from the cache.
inputTokens: Long
The number of input tokens which were used.
outputTokens: Long
The number of output tokens which were used.
The number of server tool requests.
webFetchRequests: Long
The number of web fetch tool requests.
webSearchRequests: Long
The number of web search tool requests.

Content generated by the model.
This is an array of content blocks, each of which has a type that determines its shape.
Example:
[{"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:
[
{"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:
[{"type": "text", "text": "B)"}]
