Examples (tl;dr)

If you want to quickly get a glance how to use the AI21 Python SDK and jump straight to business, you can check out the examples. Take a look at our models and see them in action! Several examples and demonstrations have been put together to show our models' functionality and capabilities.

Check out the Examples

Feel free to dive in, experiment, and adapt these examples to suit your needs. We believe they'll help you get up and running quickly.

Migration from v1.3.4 and below

In v2.0.0 we introduced a new SDK that is not backwards compatible with the previous version. This version allows for non-static instances of the client, defined parameters to each resource, modelized responses and more.

Migration Examples

Instance creation (not available in v1.3.4 and below)

from ai21 import AI21Client

client = AI21Client(api_key='my_api_key')

# or set api_key in environment variable - AI21_API_KEY and then
client = AI21Client()

We No longer support static methods for each resource, instead we have a client instance that has a method for each allowing for more flexibility and better control.

Completion before/after

prompt = "some prompt"

- import ai21
- response = ai21.Completion.execute(model="j2-light", prompt=prompt, maxTokens=2)

+ from ai21 import AI21Client
+ client = ai21.AI21Client()
+ response = client.completion.create(model="j2-light", prompt=prompt, max_tokens=2)

This applies to all resources. You would now need to create a client instance and use it to call the resource method.

Tokenization and Token counting before/after

- response = ai21.Tokenization.execute(text=prompt)
- print(len(response)) # number of tokens

+ from ai21 import AI21Client
+ client = AI21Client()
+ token_count = client.count_tokens(text=prompt)

Key Access in Response Objects before/after

It is no longer possible to access the response object as a dictionary. Instead, you can access the response object as an object with attributes.

- import ai21
- response = ai21.Summarize.execute(source="some text", sourceType="TEXT")
- response["summary"]

+ from ai21 import AI21Client
+ from ai21.models import DocumentType
+ client = AI21Client()
+ response = client.summarize.create(source="some text", source_type=DocumentType.TEXT)
+ response.summary

AWS Client Creations

Bedrock Client creation before/after

- import ai21
- destination = ai21.BedrockDestination(model_id=ai21.BedrockModelID.J2_MID_V1)
- response = ai21.Completion.execute(prompt=prompt, maxTokens=1000, destination=destination)

+ from ai21 import AI21BedrockClient, BedrockModelID
+ client = AI21BedrockClient()
+ response = client.completion.create(prompt=prompt, max_tokens=1000, model_id=BedrockModelID.J2_MID_V1)

SageMaker Client creation before/after

- import ai21
- destination = ai21.SageMakerDestination("j2-mid-test-endpoint")
- response = ai21.Completion.execute(prompt=prompt, maxTokens=1000, destination=destination)

+ from ai21 import AI21SageMakerClient
+ client = AI21SageMakerClient(endpoint_name="j2-mid-test-endpoint")
+ response = client.completion.create(prompt=prompt, max_tokens=1000)

Documentation


The full documentation for the REST API can be found on docs.ai21.com.

Installation


pip install ai21

Usage


from ai21 import AI21Client
from ai21.models.chat import ChatMessage

client = AI21Client(
    # defaults to os.enviorn.get('AI21_API_KEY')
    api_key='my_api_key',
)

system = "You're a support engineer in a SaaS company"
messages = [
    ChatMessage(content=system, role="system"),
    ChatMessage(content="Hello, I need help with a signup process.", role="user"),
]

chat_completions = client.chat.completions.create(
    messages=messages,
    model="jamba-1.5-mini",
)

Async Usage

You can use the AsyncAI21Client to make asynchronous requests. There is no difference between the sync and the async client in terms of usage.

import asyncio

from ai21 import AsyncAI21Client
from ai21.models.chat import ChatMessage

system = "You're a support engineer in a SaaS company"
messages = [
    ChatMessage(content=system, role="system"),
    ChatMessage(content="Hello, I need help with a signup process.", role="user"),
]

client = AsyncAI21Client(
   # defaults to os.enviorn.get('AI21_API_KEY')
    api_key='my_api_key',
)


async def main():
    response = await client.chat.completions.create(
        messages=messages,
        model="jamba-1.5-mini",
    )

    print(response)


asyncio.run(main())

A more detailed example can be found here.

Older Models Support Usage

Examples

Supported Models:

you can read more about the models here.

Chat

from ai21 import AI21Client
from ai21.models import RoleType
from ai21.models import ChatMessage

system = "You're a support engineer in a SaaS company"
messages = [
    ChatMessage(text="Hello, I need help with a signup process.", role=RoleType.USER),
    ChatMessage(text="Hi Alice, I can help you with that. What seems to be the problem?", role=RoleType.ASSISTANT),
    ChatMessage(text="I am having trouble signing up for your product with my Google account.", role=RoleType.USER),
]


client = AI21Client()
chat_response = client.chat.create(
    system=system,
    messages=messages,
    model="j2-ultra",
)

For a more detailed example, see the chat examples.

Completion

from ai21 import AI21Client


client = AI21Client()
completion_response = client.completion.create(
    prompt="This is a test prompt",
    model="j2-mid",
)

Chat Completion

from ai21 import AI21Client
from ai21.models.chat import ChatMessage

system = "You're a support engineer in a SaaS company"
messages = [
    ChatMessage(content=system, role="system"),
    ChatMessage(content="Hello, I need help with a signup process.", role="user"),
    ChatMessage(content="Hi Alice, I can help you with that. What seems to be the problem?", role="assistant"),
    ChatMessage(content="I am having trouble signing up for your product with my Google account.", role="user"),
]

client = AI21Client()

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    messages=messages,
    model="jamba-instruct",
    max_tokens=100,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=1.0,
    stop=["\n"],
)

print(response)

Note that jamba-instruct supports async and streaming as well.

For a more detailed example, see the completion examples.


Streaming

We currently support streaming for the Chat Completions API in Jamba.

from ai21 import AI21Client
from ai21.models.chat import ChatMessage

messages = [ChatMessage(content="What is the meaning of life?", role="user")]

client = AI21Client()

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    messages=messages,
    model="jamba-instruct",
    stream=True,
)
for chunk in response:
    print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content, end="")

Async Streaming

import asyncio

from ai21 import AsyncAI21Client
from ai21.models.chat import ChatMessage

messages = [ChatMessage(content="What is the meaning of life?", role="user")]

client = AsyncAI21Client()


async def main():
    response = await client.chat.completions.create(
        messages=messages,
        model="jamba-1.5-mini",
        stream=True,
    )
    async for chunk in response:
        print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content, end="")


asyncio.run(main())

Conversational RAG (Beta)

Like chat, but with the ability to retrieve information from your Studio library.

from ai21 import AI21Client
from ai21.models.chat import ChatMessage

messages = [
    ChatMessage(content="Ask a question about your files", role="user"),
]

client = AI21Client()

client.library.files.create(
  file_path="path/to/file",
  path="path/to/file/in/library",
  labels=["my_file_label"],
)
chat_response = client.beta.conversational_rag.create(
    messages=messages,
    labels=["my_file_label"],
)

For a more detailed example, see the chat sync and async examples.


More Models

TSMs

AI21 Studio's Task-Specific Models offer a range of powerful tools. These models have been specifically designed for their respective tasks and provide high-quality results while optimizing efficiency. The full documentation and guides can be found here.

Contextual Answers

The answer API allows you to access our high-quality question answering model.

from ai21 import AI21Client

client = AI21Client()
response = client.answer.create(
    context="This is a text is for testing purposes",
    question="Question about context",
)

A detailed explanation on Contextual Answers, can be found here

File Upload


from ai21 import AI21Client

client = AI21Client()

file_id = client.library.files.create(
    file_path="path/to/file",
    path="path/to/file/in/library",
    labels=["label1", "label2"],
    public_url="www.example.com",
)

uploaded_file = client.library.files.get(file_id)

For more information on more Task Specific Models, see the documentation.

Token Counting


By using the count_tokens method, you can estimate the billing for a given request.

from ai21.tokenizers import get_tokenizer

tokenizer = get_tokenizer(name="jamba-tokenizer")
total_tokens = tokenizer.count_tokens(text="some text")  # returns int
print(total_tokens)

Async Usage

from ai21.tokenizers import get_async_tokenizer

## Your async function code
#...
tokenizer = await get_async_tokenizer(name="jamba-tokenizer")
total_tokens = await tokenizer.count_tokens(text="some text")  # returns int
print(total_tokens)

Available tokenizers are:

  • jamba-tokenizer
  • j2-tokenizer

For more information on AI21 Tokenizers, see the documentation.

Environment Variables


You can set several environment variables to configure the client.

Logging

We use the standard library logging module.

To enable logging, set the AI21_LOG_LEVEL environment variable.

$ export AI21_LOG_LEVEL=debug

Other Important Environment Variables

  • AI21_API_KEY - Your API key. If not set, you must pass it to the client constructor.
  • AI21_API_VERSION - The API version. Defaults to v1.
  • AI21_API_HOST - The API host. Defaults to https://api.ai21.com/v1/.
  • AI21_TIMEOUT_SEC - The timeout for API requests.
  • AI21_NUM_RETRIES - The maximum number of retries for API requests. Defaults to 3 retries.
  • AI21_AWS_REGION - The AWS region to use for AWS clients. Defaults to us-east-1.

Error Handling


from ai21 import errors as ai21_errors
from ai21 import AI21Client, AI21APIError
from ai21.models import ChatMessage

client = AI21Client()

system = "You're a support engineer in a SaaS company"
messages = [
        # Notice the given role does not exist and will be the reason for the raised error
        ChatMessage(text="Hello, I need help with a signup process.", role="Non-Existent-Role"),
    ]

try:
    chat_completion = client.chat.create(
        messages=messages,
        model="j2-ultra",
        system=system
    )
except ai21_errors.AI21ServerError as e:
    print("Server error and could not be reached")
    print(e.details)
except ai21_errors.TooManyRequestsError as e:
    print("A 429 status code was returned. Slow down on the requests")
except AI21APIError as e:
    print("A non 200 status code error. For more error types see ai21.errors")
