Retrieve a job

Fetch the current state of a single conversion job. This is what you poll after submitting.

Method	GET
Path	/api/conversions/:id

The :id is the value returned in data.id from any conversion submission (3D, 2D, Text, Simulate).

The endpoint also synchronises the latest status from the upstream pipeline before returning, so you always get a fresh progress, stage, and status.

Examples

curl

curl https://api.rigyd.com/api/conversions/abc123... \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer rgyd_live_..."

JavaScript

// Simple polling loop
async function waitFor(jobId) {
  while (true) {
    const res = await fetch(`https://api.rigyd.com/api/conversions/${jobId}`, {
      headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.RIGYD_API_KEY}` },
    });
    const { data } = await res.json();
    if (data.status === 'completed') return data;
    if (data.status === 'failed') throw new Error(data.error || 'failed');
    await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 3000));
  }
}

Python

import os, time, requests

def wait_for(job_id):
    headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['RIGYD_API_KEY']}"}
    while True:
        data = requests.get(
            f"https://api.rigyd.com/api/conversions/{job_id}",
            headers=headers,
        ).json()["data"]
        if data["status"] == "completed":
            return data
        if data["status"] == "failed":
            raise RuntimeError(data.get("error") or "failed")
        time.sleep(3)

Tip

Polling cadence: every 3-5 seconds is plenty. Most jobs finish under two minutes. We do not currently rate-limit polling but you should still back off when not actively waiting on a result.
