unsandbox.com

Execute code immediately and wait for results. Best for quick scripts and interactive use.

Request Parameters

Example (Elixir)

# Requires Jason package for JSON parsing (already installed in container)
:inets.start()
:ssl.start()

url = ~c"https://api.unsandbox.com/execute"
headers = [
  {~c"Content-Type", ~c"application/json"},
  {~c"Authorization", ~c"Bearer #{ System.get_env("UNSANDBOX_API_KEY", "unsb-sk-test0-vault-unlck-12345") }"}
]
body = ~S({"language":"python","code":"print('Hello from unsandbox!')"})

case :httpc.request(:post, {url, headers, ~c"application/json", body}, [], []) do
  {:ok, {{_, 200, _}, _, response}} ->
    result = Jason.decode!(to_string(response))
    exit_code = Map.get(result, "exit_code", 1)

    if exit_code == 0 do
      IO.puts("Output: #{Map.get(result, "stdout")}")
    else
      IO.puts("Error: #{Map.get(result, "stderr")}")
    end
  {:error, reason} ->
    IO.puts("Request failed: #{inspect(reason)}")
end

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",
  "stderr": "SyntaxError: invalid syntax\n"
}

Submit code for execution and receive a job ID to poll for results. Best for long-running scripts or when you need to decouple submission from execution.

Request Parameters

:inets.start()
:ssl.start()

# Submit job
url = ~c"https://api.unsandbox.com/execute/async"

      _ ->
        Process.sleep(1000)
        poll(job_id, headers)
    end
  end
end

JobPoller.poll(job_id, headers)

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

Example (Elixir)

Mix.install([{:jason, "~> 1.4"}])

:inets.start()
:ssl.start()

job_id = "job_1234567890_abc"
url = ~c"https://api.unsandbox.com/jobs/#{job_id}"

headers = [
  {~c"Authorization",
   ~c"Bearer #{System.get_env("UNSANDBOX_API_KEY", "unsb-sk-test0-vault-unlck-12345")}"}
]

case :httpc.request(:get, {url, headers}, [], []) do
  {:ok, {{_, 200, _}, _, response}} ->
    job = Jason.decode!(to_string(response))
    IO.puts("Status: #{Map.get(job, "status")}")

    if Map.get(job, "status") == "completed" do
      result = Map.get(job, "result")
      exit_code = Map.get(result, "exit_code", 1)
      IO.puts("Exit code: #{exit_code}")
      IO.puts("Output: #{Map.get(result, "stdout")}")
    end

  {:ok, {{_, 404, _}, _, _}} ->
    IO.puts("Job not found")

  {:error, reason} ->
    IO.puts("Request failed: #{inspect(reason)}")
end

Response (Completed)

{
  "job_id": "job_1234567890_abc",
  "status": "completed",
  "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
• running - Job currently executing
• 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 (Elixir)

Mix.install([{:jason, "~> 1.4"}])

:inets.start()
:ssl.start()

url = ~c"https://api.unsandbox.com/jobs"

headers = [
  {~c"Authorization",
   ~c"Bearer #{System.get_env("UNSANDBOX_API_KEY", "unsb-sk-test0-vault-unlck-12345")}"}
]

case :httpc.request(:get, {url, headers}, [], []) do
  {:ok, {{_, 200, _}, _, response}} ->
    jobs = Jason.decode!(to_string(response))

    Enum.each(jobs, fn job ->
      IO.puts(
        "#{Map.get(job, "job_id")}: #{Map.get(job, "status")} (#{Map.get(job, "language")})"
      )
    end)

  {:error, reason} ->
    IO.puts("Request failed: #{inspect(reason)}")
end

Response

{
  "jobs": [
    {
      "job_id": "job_1234567890_abc",
      "status": "running",
      "language": "python",

      "language": "go",
      "submitted_at": "2024-01-15T10:29:45Z"
    }
  ]
}

Cancel a pending or running job. If the job is already executing, it will be terminated and partial output returned.
