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

Request Parameters

Example (R)

#!/usr/bin/env Rscript
library(httr2)
library(jsonlite)

api_key <- Sys.getenv("UNSANDBOX_API_KEY", "unsb-sk-test0-vault-unlck-12345")

payload <- toJSON(list(
  language = "r",
  code = 'print("Hello from unsandbox!")'
), auto_unbox = TRUE)

response <- request("https://api.unsandbox.com/execute") |>
  req_method("POST") |>
  req_headers(
    `Content-Type` = "application/json",
    Authorization = paste0("Bearer ", api_key)
  ) |>
  req_body_raw(payload) |>
  req_perform()

result <- resp_body_json(response)
cat(result$stdout)

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.

  Sys.sleep(1)
}

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 (R)

#!/usr/bin/env Rscript
library(httr2)
library(jsonlite)

api_key <- Sys.getenv("UNSANDBOX_API_KEY", "unsb-sk-test0-vault-unlck-12345")

response <- request("https://api.unsandbox.com/jobs/job_1234567890_abc") |>
  req_headers(Authorization = paste0("Bearer ", api_key)) |>
  req_perform()

result <- resp_body_json(response)
cat(toJSON(result, auto_unbox = TRUE, pretty = TRUE))

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 (R)

#!/usr/bin/env Rscript
library(httr2)
library(jsonlite)

api_key <- Sys.getenv("UNSANDBOX_API_KEY", "unsb-sk-test0-vault-unlck-12345")

response <- request("https://api.unsandbox.com/jobs") |>
  req_headers(Authorization = paste0("Bearer ", api_key)) |>
  req_perform()

result <- resp_body_json(response)
cat(toJSON(result, auto_unbox = TRUE, pretty = TRUE))

Response

{
  "jobs": [
    {
      "job_id": "job_1234567890_abc",
      "status": "running",
      "language": "python",
      "submitted_at": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z"
    },
    {
      "job_id": "job_0987654321_xyz",
      "status": "pending",
      "language": "go",
      "submitted_at": "2024-01-15T10:29:45Z"
