  title: IBM Quantum Negotiate Version and List Backends
  summary: Discover the live API version, then list accessible backends and check one backend's status using that version.
  description: >-
    A version-negotiation bootstrap flow. The workflow first queries the
    supported API versions to learn which version is live, then uses the
    caller-supplied version header to list the backends the instance can reach
    and to read the status of a chosen backend. This mirrors the recommended
    practice of pinning the IBM-API-Version header to a known-good value before
    issuing data-plane calls. Each data-plane request inlines its bearer token,
    Service-CRN, and IBM-API-Version headers so the flow can be read and executed
    without opening the underlying OpenAPI descriptions.
