Key parameters
endpoint (required): Target endpoint for batch items such as responses.
input_file_id (required): File id uploaded through the files API.
completion_window: Upstream batch completion window such as 24h.
session_id: Optional AI Stats grouping id for logs, sessions, and investigate tooling.
webhook: Optional webhook configuration for async lifecycle notifications.
metadata: Optional object persisted with the batch.
Batch responses also surface gateway observability fields such as request_id, provider, echoed session_id / webhook, and terminal billing / pricing_lines when available.
Use client.batches.websocket_url(...) when you want to subscribe to the documented /v1/async/batch/{id}/ws lifecycle stream instead of polling only.
Use client.get_async_job_websocket_url("batch", batch_id, ...) when you already have a generic async job kind/id pair and do not want to go through the resource helper. Last modified on May 6, 2026
