  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "language": "python",
    "code": "print(\"Hello from unsandbox!\")"
  }'

Response (Success)

{
  "success": true,
  "stdout": "Hello from unsandbox!\n",
  "stderr": "",
  "error": null,
  "language": "python",
  "exit_code": 0
}

Response (Error)

{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Syntax error in code",

  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "language": "rust",
    "code": "fn main() { println!(\"Computing...\"); }",
    "ttl": 300
  }' | jq -r '.job_id')

echo "Job submitted: $JOB_ID"

# Poll for results
while true; do
  STATUS=$(curl -s https://api.unsandbox.com/jobs/$JOB_ID \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY")

  STATE=$(echo $STATUS | jq -r '.status')

  if [ "$STATE" = "completed" ]; then
    echo $STATUS | jq '.result'
    break
  elif [ "$STATE" = "timeout" ] || [ "$STATE" = "cancelled" ]; then
    echo "Job $STATE"
    break
  fi

  sleep 1
done

Initial Response

{
  "job_id": "job_1234567890_abc",
  "status": "pending"
}

Check the status and results of an asynchronous job. Poll this endpoint after submitting a job via /execute/async or /run/async.

URL Parameters

JOB_ID="job_1234567890_abc"

curl -X GET https://api.unsandbox.com/jobs/$JOB_ID \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Response (Completed)

{
  "job_id": "job_1234567890_abc",

  "result": {
    "success": true,
    "stdout": "Hello from unsandbox!\n",
    "stderr": "",
    "error": null,
    "language": "python",
    "exit_code": 0
  }
}

Possible Status Values

• pending - Job queued, waiting to execute

• completed - Job finished (check result field)
• timeout - Job exceeded TTL limit
• cancelled - Job was cancelled via DELETE

List all active (pending or running) jobs for your API key. Useful for monitoring multiple async executions.

Example (Bash)

curl -X GET https://api.unsandbox.com/jobs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
