How to kick off background runs
This guide covers how to kick off background runs for your agent. This can be useful for long running jobs.
Setup
First let's set up our client and thread:
=== "Python"
```python
from langgraph_sdk import get_client
client = get_client(url=<DEPLOYMENT_URL>)
# Using the graph deployed with the name "agent"
assistant_id = "agent"
# create thread
thread = await client.threads.create()
print(thread)
```
=== "Javascript"
```js
import { Client } from "@langchain/langgraph-sdk";
const client = new Client({ apiUrl: <DEPLOYMENT_URL> });
// Using the graph deployed with the name "agent"
const assistantID = "agent";
// create thread
const thread = await client.threads.create();
console.log(thread);
```
=== "CURL"
```bash
curl --request POST \
--url <DEPLOYMENT_URL>/threads \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{}'
```
Output:
{
'thread_id': '5cb1e8a1-34b3-4a61-a34e-71a9799bd00d',
'created_at': '2024-08-30T20:35:52.062934+00:00',
'updated_at': '2024-08-30T20:35:52.062934+00:00',
'metadata': {},
'status': 'idle',
'config': {},
'values': None
}
Check runs on thread
If we list the current runs on this thread, we will see that it's empty:
=== "Python"
```python
runs = await client.runs.list(thread["thread_id"])
print(runs)
```
=== "Javascript"
```js
let runs = await client.runs.list(thread['thread_id']);
console.log(runs);
```
=== "CURL"
```bash
curl --request GET \
--url <DEPLOYMENT_URL>/threads/<THREAD_ID>/runs
```
Output:
[]
Start runs on thread
Now let's kick off a run:
=== "Python"
```python
input = {"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "what's the weather in sf"}]}
run = await client.runs.create(thread["thread_id"], assistant_id, input=input)
```
=== "Javascript"
```js
let input = {"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "what's the weather in sf"}]};
let run = await client.runs.create(thread["thread_id"], assistantID, { input });
```
=== "CURL"
```bash
curl --request POST \
--url <DEPLOYMENT_URL>/threads/<THREAD_ID>/runs \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"assistant_id": <ASSISTANT_ID>
}'
```
The first time we poll it, we can see status=pending:
=== "Python"
```python
print(await client.runs.get(thread["thread_id"], run["run_id"]))
```
=== "Javascript"
```js
console.log(await client.runs.get(thread["thread_id"], run["run_id"]));
```
=== "CURL"
```bash
curl --request GET \
--url <DEPLOYMENT_URL>/threads/<THREAD_ID>/runs/<RUN_ID>
```
Output:
{
"run_id": "1ef6a5f8-bd86-6763-bbd6-bff042db7b1b",
"thread_id": "7885f0cf-94ad-4040-91d7-73f7ba007c8a",
"assistant_id": "fe096781-5601-53d2-b2f6-0d3403f7e9ca",
"created_at": "2024-09-04T01:46:47.244887+00:00",
"updated_at": "2024-09-04T01:46:47.244887+00:00",
"metadata": {},
"status": "pending",
"kwargs": {
"input": {
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "what's the weather in sf"
}
]
},
"config": {
"metadata": {
"created_by": "system"
},
"configurable": {
"run_id": "1ef6a5f8-bd86-6763-bbd6-bff042db7b1b",
"user_id": "",
"graph_id": "agent",
"thread_id": "7885f0cf-94ad-4040-91d7-73f7ba007c8a",
"assistant_id": "fe096781-5601-53d2-b2f6-0d3403f7e9ca",
"checkpoint_id": null
}
},
"webhook": null,

"stream_mode": [
"values"
],
"feedback_keys": null,
"interrupt_after": null,
"interrupt_before": null
},
"multitask_strategy": "reject"
}
Now we can join the run, wait for it to finish and check that status again:
=== "Python"
```python
await client.runs.join(thread["thread_id"], run["run_id"])
print(await client.runs.get(thread["thread_id"], run["run_id"]))
```
=== "Javascript"
```js
await client.runs.join(thread["thread_id"], run["run_id"]);
console.log(await client.runs.get(thread["thread_id"], run["run_id"]));
```
=== "CURL"
```bash
curl --request GET \
--url <DEPLOYMENT_URL>/threads/<THREAD_ID>/runs/<RUN_ID>/join &&
curl --request GET \
--url <DEPLOYMENT_URL>/threads/<THREAD_ID>/runs/<RUN_ID>
```
Output:
{
"run_id": "1ef6a5f8-bd86-6763-bbd6-bff042db7b1b",
"thread_id": "7885f0cf-94ad-4040-91d7-73f7ba007c8a",
"assistant_id": "fe096781-5601-53d2-b2f6-0d3403f7e9ca",
"created_at": "2024-09-04T01:46:47.244887+00:00",
"updated_at": "2024-09-04T01:46:47.244887+00:00",
"metadata": {},
"status": "success",
"kwargs": {
"input": {
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "what's the weather in sf"
}
]
},
"config": {
"metadata": {
"created_by": "system"
},
"configurable": {
"run_id": "1ef6a5f8-bd86-6763-bbd6-bff042db7b1b",
"user_id": "",
"graph_id": "agent",
"thread_id": "7885f0cf-94ad-4040-91d7-73f7ba007c8a",
"assistant_id": "fe096781-5601-53d2-b2f6-0d3403f7e9ca",
"checkpoint_id": null
}
},
"webhook": null,
"temporary": false,
"stream_mode": [
"values"
],
"feedback_keys": null,
"interrupt_after": null,
"interrupt_before": null
},
"multitask_strategy": "reject"
}
Perfect! The run succeeded as we would expect. We can double check that the run worked as expected by printing out the final state:
=== "Python"
```python
final_result = await client.threads.get_state(thread["thread_id"])
print(final_result)
```
=== "Javascript"
```js
let finalResult = await client.threads.getState(thread["thread_id"]);
console.log(finalResult);
```
=== "CURL"
```bash
curl --request GET \
--url <DEPLOYMENT_URL>/threads/<THREAD_ID>/state
```

We can also just print the content of the last AIMessage:

```python
print(final_result['values']['messages'][-1]['content'][0]['text'])
```
=== "Javascript"
```js
console.log(finalResult['values']['messages'][finalResult['values']['messages'].length-1]['content'][0]['text']);
```
=== "CURL"
```bash
curl --request GET \
--url <DEPLOYMENT_URL>/threads/<THREAD_ID>/state | jq -r '.values.messages[-1].content.[0].text'
```
Output:
