The main function of the SeeDream Tasks API is to query the execution status of tasks by inputting the task ID generated by the SeeDream Images Generation API. This document will provide detailed integration instructions for the SeeDream Tasks API, helping you easily integrate and fully utilize the powerful features of this API. With the SeeDream Tasks API, you can easily query the execution status of tasks from the SeeDream Images Generation API.

​
Application Process

To use the SeeDream Tasks API, you first need to go to the application page SeeDream Images Generation API to apply for the corresponding service, and then copy the task ID from the SeeDream Images Generation API, as shown in the image below:

Finally, go to the Tasks API page SeeDream Tasks API to apply for the corresponding service. After entering the page, click the “Acquire” button, as shown in the image below: Application Page If you are not logged in or registered, you will be automatically redirected to the login page inviting you to register and log in. After logging in or registering, you will be automatically returned to the current page. There is a free quota available for first-time applicants, allowing you to use this API for free.

​
Request Example

The SeeDream Tasks API can be used to query the results of the SeeDream Images Generation API. For information on how to use the SeeDream Images Generation API, please refer to the documentation SeeDream Images Generation API. We will take a task ID returned by the SeeDream Images Generation API as an example to demonstrate how to use this API. Suppose we have a task ID: 20068983-0cc9-4c6a-aeb6-9c6a3c668be0, we will demonstrate how to pass in a task ID.

  • authorization: The key to call the API, which can be selected directly after application.
Request Body includes:
  • id: The uploaded task ID.
  • action: The operation method for the task.

​
Code Example

It can be seen that various language codes have been automatically generated on the right side of the page, as shown in the image below:

Some code examples are as follows:

​
CURL

curl -X POST 'https://api.acedata.cloud/seedream/tasks' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H 'authorization: Bearer {token}' \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-d '{
  "id": "a6e0d456-189b-4c78-9232-2fe72166ab39",
  "action": "retrieve"
}'

​
Response Example

After a successful request, the API will return the details of the task here. For example: 
{
  "success": true,
  "task_id": "84d1544a-9043-4dde-a98b-e889dacd75f6",
  "trace_id": "176acf03-7ca7-4fc6-85db-e3724d4f59eb",
  "data": [
    {
      "prompt": "a white siamese cat",

    }
  ]
}
The returned result contains multiple fields, described as follows:
  • success: The status of the video generation task at this time.
  • task_id: The ID of the video generation task at this time.
