View provider details

Providers and their devices are documented once, on Provider's Devices. That page is the canonical reference: how to open Provider Details, the full provider list with credential types, device permissions, device status, and the related jobs for a provider.

This page covers only what matters when you are choosing a target from code.

Choosing a device for a function

  • The provider must be compatible with the SDK the function was created with. Only compatible providers appear at invocation time — a provider missing from the list usually means an SDK mismatch, not an outage.
  • Simulator or QPU. Simulator devices carry simulator in the name. A simulator returns quickly; a QPU queues behind other users and its availability window.
  • Check device status before a batch run. The device list is fetched fresh each time the page is opened, so it reflects current availability.
  • Some providers need a workspace credential before they can be used at all, and an unverified credential blocks invocation. See Workspace Provider Credentials.
