# SaveUnitary
<Class id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit-aer/tree/stable/0.10/qiskit/providers/aer/library/save_instructions/save_unitary.py" signature="SaveUnitary(num_qubits, label='unitary', pershot=False)" modifiers="class">
Bases: `qiskit.providers.aer.library.save_instructions.save_data.SaveSingleData`
Save Unitary
Create new instruction to save the unitary simulator state.
**Parameters**
* **num\_qubits** (*int*) the number of qubits of the
* **label** (*str*) the key for retrieving saved data from results.
* **pershot** (*bool*) if True save a list of unitaries for each shot of the simulation rather than a single statevector \[Default: False].
<Admonition title="Note" type="note">
This save instruction must always be performed on the full width of qubits in a circuit, otherwise an exception will be raised during simulation.
</Admonition>
## Methods
### add\_decomposition
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.add_decomposition" signature="SaveUnitary.add_decomposition(decomposition)">
Add a decomposition of the instruction to the SessionEquivalenceLibrary.
</Function>
### assemble
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.assemble" signature="SaveUnitary.assemble()">
Return the QasmQobjInstruction for the intructions.
</Function>
### broadcast\_arguments
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.broadcast_arguments" signature="SaveUnitary.broadcast_arguments(qargs, cargs)">
Validation of the arguments.
**Parameters**
* **qargs** (*List*) List of quantum bit arguments.
* **cargs** (*List*) List of classical bit arguments.
**Yields**
*Tuple(List, List)* A tuple with single arguments.
**Raises**
**CircuitError** If the input is not valid. For example, the number of arguments does not match the gate expectation.
</Function>
### c\_if
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.c_if" signature="SaveUnitary.c_if(classical, val)">
Set a classical equality condition on this instruction between the register or cbit `classical` and value `val`.
<Admonition title="Note" type="note">
This is a setter method, not an additive one. Calling this multiple times will silently override any previously set condition; it does not stack.
</Admonition>
</Function>
### copy
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.copy" signature="SaveUnitary.copy(name=None)">
Copy of the instruction.
**Parameters**
**name** (*str*) name to be given to the copied circuit, if None then the name stays the same.
**Returns**
**a copy of the current instruction, with the name**
updated if it was provided
**Return type**
[qiskit.circuit.Instruction](qiskit.circuit.Instruction "qiskit.circuit.Instruction")
</Function>
### inverse
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.inverse" signature="SaveUnitary.inverse()">
Special case. Return self.
</Function>
### is\_parameterized
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.is_parameterized" signature="SaveUnitary.is_parameterized()">
Return True .IFF. instruction is parameterized else False
</Function>
### qasm
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.qasm" signature="SaveUnitary.qasm()">
Return a default OpenQASM string for the instruction.
Derived instructions may override this to print in a different format (e.g. measure q\[0] -> c\[0];).
</Function>
### repeat
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.repeat" signature="SaveUnitary.repeat(n)">
Creates an instruction with gate repeated n amount of times.
**Parameters**
**n** (*int*) Number of times to repeat the instruction
**Returns**
Containing the definition.
**Return type**
[qiskit.circuit.Instruction](qiskit.circuit.Instruction "qiskit.circuit.Instruction")
**Raises**
**CircuitError** If n \< 1.
</Function>
### reverse\_ops
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.reverse_ops" signature="SaveUnitary.reverse_ops()">
For a composite instruction, reverse the order of sub-instructions.
This is done by recursively reversing all sub-instructions. It does not invert any gate.
**Returns**
**a new instruction with**
sub-instructions reversed.
**Return type**
[qiskit.circuit.Instruction](qiskit.circuit.Instruction "qiskit.circuit.Instruction")
</Function>
### soft\_compare
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.soft_compare" signature="SaveUnitary.soft_compare(other)">
Soft comparison between gates. Their names, number of qubits, and classical bit numbers must match. The number of parameters must match. Each parameter is compared. If one is a ParameterExpression then it is not taken into account.
**Parameters**
**other** (*instruction*) other instruction.
**Returns**
are self and other equal up to parameter expressions.
**Return type**
bool
</Function>
### validate\_parameter
<Function id="qiskit.providers.aer.library.SaveUnitary.validate_parameter" signature="SaveUnitary.validate_parameter(parameter)">
Instruction parameters has no validation or normalization.
</Function>
