refusal: Optional[List[ChatCompletionTokenLogprob]]

A list of message refusal tokens with log probability information.

token: str

The token.

bytes: Optional[List[int]]

A list of integers representing the UTF-8 bytes representation of the token. Useful in instances where characters are represented by multiple tokens and their byte representations must be combined to generate the correct text representation. Can be null if there is no bytes representation for the token.

logprob: float

The log probability of this token, if it is within the top 20 most likely tokens. Otherwise, the value -9999.0 is used to signify that the token is very unlikely.

top_logprobs: List[TopLogprob]

List of the most likely tokens and their log probability, at this token position. In rare cases, there may be fewer than the number of requested top_logprobs returned.

token: str

The token.

bytes: Optional[List[int]]

A list of integers representing the UTF-8 bytes representation of the token. Useful in instances where characters are represented by multiple tokens and their byte representations must be combined to generate the correct text representation. Can be null if there is no bytes representation for the token.

logprob: float

The log probability of this token, if it is within the top 20 most likely tokens. Otherwise, the value -9999.0 is used to signify that the token is very unlikely.

content: Optional[str]

The contents of the message.

refusal: Optional[str]

The refusal message generated by the model.

role: Literal["assistant"]

The role of the author of this message.

transcript: str

Transcript of the audio generated by the model.

Deprecatedfunction_call: Optional[FunctionCall]

Deprecated and replaced by tool_calls. The name and arguments of a function that should be called, as generated by the model.

arguments: str

The arguments to call the function with, as generated by the model in JSON format. Note that the model does not always generate valid JSON, and may hallucinate parameters not defined by your function schema. Validate the arguments in your code before calling your function.

The function that the model called.

The object type, which is always chat.completion.

service_tier: Optional[Literal["auto", "default", "flex", 2 more]]

Specifies the processing type used for serving the request.

  • If set to 'auto', then the request will be processed with the service tier configured in the Project settings. Unless otherwise configured, the Project will use 'default'.
  • If set to 'default', then the request will be processed with the standard pricing and performance for the selected model.
  • If set to 'flex' or 'priority', then the request will be processed with the corresponding service tier.
  • When not set, the default behavior is 'auto'.

When the service_tier parameter is set, the response body will include the service_tier value based on the processing mode actually used to serve the request. This response value may be different from the value set in the parameter.

Accepts one of the following:
"auto"
"default"
"flex"
"scale"
"priority"
Deprecatedsystem_fingerprint: Optional[str]

This fingerprint represents the backend configuration that the model runs with.

Can be used in conjunction with the seed request parameter to understand when backend changes have been made that might impact determinism.

usage: Optional[CompletionUsage]

Usage statistics for the completion request.

completion_tokens: int

Number of tokens in the generated completion.

reasoning_tokens: Optional[int]

Tokens generated by the model for reasoning.

rejected_prediction_tokens: Optional[int]

When using Predicted Outputs, the number of tokens in the prediction that did not appear in the completion. However, like reasoning tokens, these tokens are still counted in the total completion tokens for purposes of billing, output, and context window limits.

prompt_tokens_details: Optional[PromptTokensDetails]

Breakdown of tokens used in the prompt.

audio_tokens: Optional[int]

Audio input tokens present in the prompt.

cached_tokens: Optional[int]

Cached tokens present in the prompt.
