    Function Compute:Built-in Templates

    Last Updated:Sep 20, 2026

    Built-in templates let you create a sandbox quickly. The quickstart and Code Interpreter examples use code-interpreter-v1 by default.

    Template list

    Only base and code-interpreter-v1 are ready to use once your account is provisioned — create a sandbox directly by template name, with no build step.

    TemplateUse caseDescription
    base templateBasic commands, file access, SDK connectivity checksDefault base template; no pre-installed data science libraries or higher-level dependencies
    code-interpreter-v1 templateAI Agent code execution, data analysis, file processingThe quickstart and Code Interpreter examples use code-interpreter-v1 by default

    View templates

    Use the CLI to view the templates available to the current account:

    export E2B_API_KEY="<your-api-key>"
export E2B_API_URL="https://api.cn-beijing.e2b.fc.aliyuncs.com"
export E2B_DOMAIN="cn-beijing.e2b.fc.aliyuncs.com"

e2b template list

    Create a sandbox from a template

    The SDK automatically reads the E2B_API_KEY, E2B_API_URL, and E2B_DOMAIN environment variables. Python example:

    from e2b import Sandbox

sandbox = Sandbox.create(template="code-interpreter-v1")

    TypeScript example:

    import { Sandbox } from "e2b";

const sandbox = await Sandbox.create("code-interpreter-v1");
