Finishing and Lifecycle

Finish the SDK lifecycle safely by closing the Adstract client in sync and async flows.

Why closing matters​

Closing the client prevents leaking open HTTP connections and keeps service resource usage stable.

Closing the client​

Use close() in synchronous runtimes:

from adstractai import Adstract

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

Use the async close method in asynchronous runtimes:

import asyncio
from adstractai import Adstract


async def main() -> None:
    client = Adstract(api_key="your-api-key")
    await client.aclose()


asyncio.run(main())

Ownership note​

  • If you pass custom httpx clients into Adstract, your application owns those clients and should close them directly.
  • If Adstract creates internal clients, calling close or aclose handles cleanup.
