About this repository

This is not our API. This repository is an independent, third-party profile of a company's publicly available API surface, maintained by API Evangelist. API Evangelist does not operate, host, resell, or support this company's APIs, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated on the profile.

Where the information came from. Everything here is assembled from material a member of the public can reach with a browser and no credentials — the company's own website, developer portal and documentation, the specifications it publishes for public use (OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, JSON Schema, apis.json, llms.txt and similar), its public repositories, and its public status, pricing and changelog pages. Nothing here is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials of any kind.

The rating is an independent assessment. The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated scores of a company's public API artifacts, produced by API Evangelist against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits, and they score published artifacts — not the quality, safety, or security of the software.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free. No partnership, contract, or purchase is required, and you do not need to justify the request.

  • Something wrong? Open an issue on this repository, or email info@apievangelist.com.
  • Published something new? Ask for a re-score and we will re-run the rating.
  • Want the listing taken down? Say so and we will honor it. The profile is reduced to your company name, a factual description, and a link to your own site, and the company is recorded as unrated — never scored zero for having asked.

Response times. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal or restriction within two business days; corrections and re-scores within five business days.

On a security or compliance team? Email info@apievangelist.com with security in the subject line and you will get a person, not a form. We will tell you exactly which public URLs this profile was built from so your team can see the same surface we did, and we will take the listing down on request while you work through it.

Full detail: Where this data comes from

Microsoft Azure Quantum is Microsoft's cloud quantum computing service — an open, multi-vendor platform that provides access to quantum hardware from IonQ, Quantinuum, Pasqal, and Rigetti alongside Microsoft's own Q# programming language, Quantum Development Kit (QDK), and post-layout fault-tolerant Resource Estimator. The Azure Quantum Workspace REST API exposes jobs, sessions, providers, quotas, items, and storage surfaces; the Microsoft.Quantum ARM provider handles workspace provisioning. The QDK is free and open source, ships as a VS Code extension and Python package, and supports Q#, Qiskit, Cirq, and OpenQASM. Azure Quantum Elements layers in chemistry, materials, and HPC simulation for scientific discovery, with Copilot-assisted workflows on quantum.microsoft.com.

APIs

Azure Quantum Workspace Data-Plane API

Azure Quantum Workspace Services data-plane REST API. Submit and manage quantum jobs, sessions (hybrid quantum-classical workflows), provider status checks, quotas, top-level items, and storage SAS URIs against an Azure Quantum workspace. Targets quantum hardware from IonQ, Quantinuum, Pasqal, and Rigetti plus simulators and emulators. Current preview version 2026-01-15-preview.

Properties

Q# Quantum Programming Language

Q# is Microsoft's open-source, hardware-agnostic quantum programming language. The Modern QDK compiler is written in Rust, ships as a VS Code extension and Python package, and powers quantum.microsoft.com. Q# expresses programs as classical control-flow that operates on qubits without modeling the quantum state directly, and targets every Azure Quantum provider plus the Resource Estimator.

Properties

Microsoft Quantum Resource Estimator

Open-source post-layout physical resource estimator for fault-tolerant quantum algorithms. Compute qubit counts, T-state counts, runtime, and code-distance requirements across configurable qubit physical parameters, QEC schemes, and error budgets. Ships inside the QDK and runs locally or as an Azure Quantum target.
