AdRequestContext

AdRequestContext is the request-level input object used when calling the Adstract client. It defines the runtime context Adstract needs to build a valid ad-enhancement request.

Class purpose​

This class exists to carry request metadata that is required per call:

  • conversation/session context;
  • client identity context from the request origin; and
  • network metadata used for analysis and reporting.

Class shape​

from adstractai.models import AdRequestContext

config = AdRequestContext(
    session_id="session-abc",
    user_agent=(
        "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 "
        "(KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/120.0.0.0 Safari/537.36"
    ),
    user_ip="203.0.113.10",
)

Required fields​

  • session_id

    • Type: str
    • Purpose: Identifies the request session/conversation context.
    • Why it matters:
      • Adstract uses this value to resolve conversation tracking context for the request.

  • user_agent

    • Type: str
    • Purpose: Carries client application/browser identity information.
    • Why it matters:
      • Used to derive request metadata such as device/browser characteristics.

  • user_ip

    • Type: str
    • Purpose: Carries the client IP address.
    • Why it matters:
      • Used as part of metadata and reporting context in request processing.

All three fields are required for a valid context object.

Validation behavior​

  • AdRequestContext enforces a strict schema.
  • Unknown/extra fields are rejected.
  • Missing required fields produce validation errors.

Usage with Adstract client​

from adstractai import Adstract
from adstractai.models import AdRequestContext

client = Adstract(api_key="your-api-key")

config = AdRequestContext(
    session_id="session-abc",
    user_agent=(
        "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 "
        "(KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/120.0.0.0 Safari/537.36"
    ),
    user_ip="203.0.113.10",
)

result = client.request_ad(
    prompt="How can I improve retention in my app?",
    context=config,
)
