How to run this route from Python with the Ouro SDK.
API access requires an API key. Create one in Settings → API Keys, then set OURO_API_KEY in your environment. Install the SDK with pip install ouro-py.
POST /generateParameters and request body schema for this route.
Range: 1 to 20
Number of structure candidates to generate (best one returned)
Target chemical composition (e.g., 'TiO2', 'LiMnO4')
Each run saves these to Ouro. Read them by name from action.final_data.
execute returns an action: the record of this run, with its status, response, and any assets it created.
This route is long-running. Start it without waiting, then collect the result when it's done.
By default a failed run comes back as an action with status error. Pass raise_on_error=True to raise an exception instead.
Every run is saved as an action. List yours, or read the logs of a single run. See the Python SDK reference for everything an action carries.
