RuntimeProgram
class RuntimeProgram(program_name, program_id, description, parameters=None, return_values=None, interim_results=None, max_execution_time=0, backend_requirements=None, creation_date='', update_date='', is_public=False, data='', api_client=None)
Bases: object
Class representing program metadata.
This class contains the metadata describing a program, such as its name, ID, description, etc.
You can use the IBMRuntimeService to retrieve the metadata of a specific program or all programs. For example:
from qiskit import IBMQ
provider = IBMQ.load_account()
# To retrieve metadata of all programs.
programs = provider.runtime.programs()
# To retrieve metadata of a single program.
program = provider.runtime.program(program_id='circuit-runner')
print(f"Program {program.name} takes parameters {program.parameters().metadata}")RuntimeProgram constructor.

Methods
parameters
RuntimeProgram.parameters()
Program parameter namespace.
You can use the returned namespace to assign parameter values and pass the namespace to qiskit.providers.ibmq.runtime.IBMRuntimeService.run(). The namespace allows you to use auto-completion to find program parameters.
Note that each call to this method returns a new namespace instance and does not include any modification to the previous instance.
