Events

Assistant stream events

During the execution of Runs with , a series of events occur sequentially, allowing you to track the current step in processing user Messages by the Assistant, as well as the statuses of the previously completed steps.

Every event in a server-sent events stream includes an event and data property:

event: thread.created
data: {"id": "thread_123", "object": "thread", ...}

We emit events whenever a new object is created, transitions to a new state, or is being streamed in parts (deltas). For example, we emit thread.run.created when a new Run is created, thread.run.completed when a Run completes, and so on. When an Assistant chooses to create a Message during a Run, we emit a thread.message.created event, a thread.message.in_progress event, many thread.message.delta events, and finally a thread.message.completed event.

We may add additional events over time, so we recommend handling unknown events gracefully in your code. See the this guide to learn how to integrate the Assistants API with streaming.
