About the Service

The Leap service hosts D-Wave’s solvers, including quantum computers and hybrid solvers. It enables you to do the following:

• Submit problems and view results and usage statistics

• Administer projects

• Find learning resources: a Community page where you can pose questions and provide answers to other users, a Resources page with interactive demos and a searchable collection of examples, and a Help Center for frequently asked questions (FAQ) section and a searchable knowledge base

Sign up for the Leap service here: https://cloud.dwavesys.com/leap.

Dashboard

The dashboard is the home for your experience using the Leap service and contains the following information, some of which you can also update; for example:

• Your account settings and a summary of your account

• Your active project and its associated API token

• Status of problems you have submitted and usage statistics

• Solver status

You might be a member of multiple projects, but the information displayed on the dashboard is only for the active project; for example, the solvers that have been assigned to the active project. You can make a different project active by selecting your_user_name > Projects > project.

The Leap service supports solvers in multiple regions (for example, North America and Europe). The dashboard displays the solvers that are available by region.

Solver Access

Your customer plan[1] and seat type in a project, together with your customer contract (where applicable), determine your degree of access to solvers; for example, you may not have access to all solvers that are available in the Leap service. You can view your solver access and usage for a project on the dashboard.

Users with limited solver access can submit problems to the solvers in a project while their remaining solver-access time[2] for that project is sufficient.

[1]

For information about customer plans, see the Leap Customer Plans page.

[2]

A user’s solver-access time for a project is renewed monthly, subject to the customer contract; the renewal date is displayed on the dashboard.

API Tokens

To submit a problem, an API token is required. Instead of a user name and password, an API token is used to authenticate your client session when it connects to the Leap service. A unique and secure API token is generated for each of your projects, excluding those with the Trial Plan account type,[3] and is available on the dashboard. If your API token is shared or compromised in any way, reset it via the dashboard.

[3]

Projects with the Trial Plan account type do not include the use of API tokens required to submit arbitrary problems to solvers and thus users in those projects can only run certain demos.

Ocean SDK Access

You can authorize Ocean software to access your account in the Leap service and store your API token in your development environment; see the Authorizing Access to the Leap Service section for details.

(For information on configuring Ocean software to access preferred solvers or use one of multiple API tokens, see the Get Started with Ocean Software page.)

Problem Storage

Up to 1000 of your most recent problems are stored and accessible in the Leap service for up to 365 days; if the number of your problems exceeds 1000, the Leap service begins to delete the oldest ones.
