Múltiplos turnos de conversação

A API de Mensagens é stateless, o que significa que você sempre envia o histórico completo da conversa para a API. Você pode usar esse padrão para construir uma conversa ao longo do tempo. Os turnos anteriores da conversa não precisam necessariamente se originar do Claude — você pode usar mensagens sintéticas do assistant.

Colocando palavras na boca do Claude

Você pode pré-preencher parte da resposta do Claude na última posição da lista de mensagens de entrada. Isso pode ser usado para moldar a resposta do Claude. O exemplo abaixo usa "max_tokens": 1 para obter uma única resposta de múltipla escolha do Claude.

#!/bin/sh
curl https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages \
     --header "x-api-key: $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" \
     --header "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01" \
     --header "content-type: application/json" \
     --data \
'{
    "model": "claude-opus-4-20250514",
    "max_tokens": 1,
    "messages": [
        {"role": "user", "content": "What is latin for Ant? (A) Apoidea, (B) Rhopalocera, (C) Formicidae"},
        {"role": "assistant", "content": "The answer is ("}
    ]
}'

Visão

Claude pode ler tanto texto quanto imagens nas requisições. Suportamos os tipos de fonte base64 e url para imagens, e os tipos de mídia image/jpeg, image/png, image/gif e image/webp. Veja nosso guia de visão para mais detalhes.
