Create a new isolated code execution context for managing variables and state.

​
Basic Usage

from gravixlayer import GravixLayer

client = GravixLayer(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")

sandbox = client.sandbox.sandboxes.create(template="python-base-v1", timeout=300)
sid = sandbox.sandbox_id

context = client.sandbox.sandboxes.create_context(
    sid,
    name="data_analysis",
    language="python",
)
print(f"Context ID: {context.context_id}")
print(f"Language: {context.language}")

​
Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
namestringYesContext name for identification
languagestringYesProgramming language (“python” or “javascript”)

​
Response

{
  "context_id": "ctx_550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000",
  "name": "data_analysis",
  "language": "python",
  "created_at": "2025-01-27T10:30:00Z"
}

​
Use Cases

  • Isolated environments: Separate contexts for different tasks
  • State management: Maintain variables across executions
  • Multi-language support: Python and JavaScript contexts
  • Parallel processing: Multiple contexts for concurrent tasks
