Document additional backend configuration
What is the expected enhancement?
Today IBMBackend.configuration()
returns a BackendConfiguration
class that lives in Qiskit. Since Qiskit is provider agnostic, this class doesn't have the additional fields that are returned by IBM backends. Some examples include backend.configuration().supported_features
(which tells you whether dynamic circuits are supported), and parallel_compilation
. Users would then have to learn about their existence through word of mouth instead of simply searching the API. These fields are also not documented in the schema.
Acceptance criteria
A user can find all backend configurations in the API Reference.
