Retrieves the model resource and instantiates its representation.

Parameters

Name Description
model_name str

Required. A fully-qualified model resource name or model ID. Example: "projects/123/locations/us-central1/models/456" or "456" when project and location are initialized or passed. May optionally contain a version ID or version alias in {model_name}@{version} form. See version arg.
project str

Optional project to retrieve model from. If not set, project set in aiplatform.init will be used.
location str

Optional location to retrieve model from. If not set, location set in aiplatform.init will be used.
version str

Optional. Version ID or version alias. When set, the specified model version will be targeted unless overridden in method calls. When not set, the model with the "default" alias will be targeted unless overridden in method calls. No behavior change if only one version of a model exists.

Properties

container_spec

The specification of the container that is to be used when deploying this Model. Not present for AutoML Models.

create_time

Time this resource was created.

description

Description of the model.

display_name

Display name of this resource.

encryption_spec

Customer-managed encryption key options for this Vertex AI resource.

If this is set, then all resources created by this Vertex AI resource will be encrypted with the provided encryption key.

gca_resource

The underlying resource proto representation.

labels

User-defined labels containing metadata about this resource.

Read more about labels at https://goo.gl/xmQnxf

name

Name of this resource.

predict_schemata

The schemata that describe formats of the Model's predictions and explanations, if available.

resource_name

Full qualified resource name, without any version ID.

supported_deployment_resources_types

List of deployment resource types accepted for this Model.

When this Model is deployed, its prediction resources are described by the prediction_resources field of the objects returned by Endpoint.list_models(). Because not all Models support all resource configuration types, the configuration types this Model supports are listed here.

If no configuration types are listed, the Model cannot be deployed to an Endpoint and does not support online predictions (Endpoint.predict() or Endpoint.explain()). Such a Model can serve predictions by using a BatchPredictionJob, if it has at least one entry each in Model.supported_input_storage_formats and Model.supported_output_storage_formats.

supported_export_formats

The formats and content types in which this Model may be exported. If empty, this Model is not available for export.

For example, if this model can be exported as a Tensorflow SavedModel and have the artifacts written to Cloud Storage, the expected value would be:

{'tf-saved-model': [<ExportableContent.ARTIFACT: 1>]}

supported_input_storage_formats

The formats this Model supports in the input_config field of a BatchPredictionJob. If Model.predict_schemata.instance_schema_uri exists, the instances should be given as per that schema.

Read the docs for more on batch prediction formats

If this Model doesn't support any of these formats it means it cannot be used with a BatchPredictionJob. However, if it has supported_deployment_resources_types, it could serve online predictions by using Endpoint.predict() or Endpoint.explain().

supported_output_storage_formats

The formats this Model supports in the output_config field of a BatchPredictionJob.

If both Model.predict_schemata.instance_schema_uri and Model.predict_schemata.prediction_schema_uri exist, the predictions are returned together with their instances. In other words, the prediction has the original instance data first, followed by the actual prediction content (as per the schema).

Read the docs for more on batch prediction formats

If this Model doesn't support any of these formats it means it cannot be used with a BatchPredictionJob. However, if it has supported_deployment_resources_types, it could serve online predictions by using Endpoint.predict() or Endpoint.explain().

training_job

The TrainingJob that uploaded this Model, if any.

Exceptions
Type Description
api_core.exceptions.NotFound If the Model's training job resource cannot be found on the Vertex service.

update_time

Time this resource was last updated.

uri

Path to the directory containing the Model artifact and any of its supporting files. Not present for AutoML Models.

version_aliases

User provided version aliases so that a model version can be referenced via alias (i.e. projects/{project}/locations/{location}/models/{model_id}@{version_alias} instead of auto-generated version id (i.e. projects/{project}/locations/{location}/models/{model_id}@{version_id}). The format is a-z][a-zA-Z0-9-]{0,126}[a-z0-9] to distinguish from version_id. A default version alias will be created for the first version of the model, and there must be exactly one default version alias for a model.

version_create_time

Timestamp when this version was created.

version_description

The description of this version.

version_id

The version ID of the model. A new version is committed when a new model version is uploaded or trained under an existing model id. It is an auto-incrementing decimal number in string representation.

version_update_time

Timestamp when this version was updated.

versioned_resource_name

The fully-qualified resource name, including the version ID. For example, projects/{project}/locations/{location}/models/{model_id}@{version_id}

versioning_registry

The registry of model versions associated with this Model instance.

Machine type, and size of a single record should be considered when setting this parameter, higher value speeds up the batch operation's execution, but too high value will result in a whole batch not fitting in a machine's memory, and the whole operation will fail. The default value is 64.

Optional. The maximum number of replicas this deployed model may be deployed on when the traffic against it increases. If requested value is too large, the deployment will error, but if deployment succeeds then the ability to scale the model to that many replicas is guaranteed (barring service outages).

network str

Optional. The full name of the Compute Engine network to which the Endpoint, if created, will be peered to. E.g. "projects/12345/global/networks/myVPC". Private services access must already be configured for the network. If set or aiplatform.init(network=...) has been set, a PrivateEndpoint will be created. If left unspecified, an Endpoint will be created. Read more about PrivateEndpoints in the documentation.
deploy_request_timeout float

Optional. The timeout for the deploy request in seconds.
autoscaling_target_cpu_utilization int

Optional. Target CPU Utilization to use for Autoscaling Replicas. A default value of 60 will be used if not specified.

Overrides encryption_spec_key_name set in aiplatform.init.
staging_bucket str

Optional. Bucket to stage local model artifacts. Overrides staging_bucket set in aiplatform.init.
