# BasePrimitiveJob

*class* `qiskit.primitives.BasePrimitiveJob(job_id, **kwargs)`

[GitHub](https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/1.0/qiskit/primitives/base/base_primitive_job.py#L26-L78)

Bases: [`ABC`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/abc.html#abc.ABC), [`Generic`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.Generic)\[`ResultT`, `StatusT`]

Primitive job abstract base class.

Initializes the primitive job.

**Parameters**

- **job\_id** ([*str*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str)) – A unique id in the context of the primitive used to run the job.
- **kwargs** – Any key value metadata to associate with this job.
