When you submit a task to the Music Video Generation API, you can use the callBackUrl parameter to set a callback URL. When the task is completed, the system will automatically push the results to your specified address.

Callback Mechanism Overview

The callback mechanism eliminates the need to poll the API for task status. The system will proactively push task completion results to your server.

Callback Timing

The system will send callback notifications in the following situations:
  • Music video generation task completed successfully
  • Music video generation task failed
  • Errors occurred during task processing

Callback Method

  • HTTP Method: POST
  • Content Type: application/json
  • Timeout Setting: 15 seconds
  • Retry Mechanism: Retry 3 times after failure, with intervals of 1 minute, 5 minutes, and 15 minutes respectively

Callback Request Format

When the task is completed, the system will send a POST request to your callBackUrl in the following format:
{
  "code": 200,
  "msg": "MP4 generated successfully.",
  "data": {
    "task_id": "taskId_774b9aa0422f",
    "video_url": "https://example.com/videos/video_847715e66259.mp4"
  }
}

Status Code Description

code
integer
required
Callback status code indicating task processing result:
Status CodeDescription
200Success - Music video generation completed
400Bad Request - Parameter error, unsupported audio file format, etc.
451Download Failed - Unable to download source audio file
500Server Error - Please try again later
msg
string
required
Status message providing detailed status description
data.task_id
string
required
Task ID, consistent with the taskId returned when you submitted the task
data.video_url
string
Generated MP4 video file download URL, returned on success

Callback Reception Examples

Here are example codes for receiving callbacks in popular programming languages:
const express = require('express');
const app = express();

app.use(express.json());

app.post('/music-video-callback', (req, res) => {
  const { code, msg, data } = req.body;
  
  console.log('Received music video generation callback:', {
    taskId: data.task_id,
    status: code,
    message: msg
  });
  
  if (code === 200) {
    // Task completed successfully
    console.log('Music video generation completed');
    console.log(`Video URL: ${data.video_url}`);
    
    // Download video file
    if (data.video_url) {
      const https = require('https');
      const fs = require('fs');
      
      const filename = `music_video_${data.task_id}.mp4`;
      const file = fs.createWriteStream(filename);
      
      https.get(data.video_url, (response) => {
        response.pipe(file);
        file.on('finish', () => {
          file.close();
          console.log(`Video file saved as ${filename}`);
        });
      }).on('error', (err) => {
        console.error('Video file download failed:', err.message);
      });
    }
    
  } else {
    // Task failed
    console.log('Music video generation failed:', msg);
    
    // Handle failure cases...
    if (code === 400) {
      console.log('Parameter error or unsupported audio file format');
    } else if (code === 451) {
      console.log('Source audio file download failed');
    } else if (code === 500) {
      console.log('Server internal error');
    }
  }
  
  // Return 200 status code to confirm callback received
  res.status(200).json({ status: 'received' });
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log('Callback server running on port 3000');
});

Best Practices

Callback URL Configuration Recommendations

  1. Use HTTPS: Ensure your callback URL uses HTTPS protocol for secure data transmission
  2. Verify Source: Verify the legitimacy of the request source in callback processing
  3. Idempotent Processing: The same taskId may receive multiple callbacks, ensure processing logic is idempotent
  4. Quick Response: Callback processing should return a 200 status code as quickly as possible to avoid timeout
  5. Asynchronous Processing: Complex business logic should be processed asynchronously to avoid blocking callback response
  6. Video Processing: Video file download and processing should be done in asynchronous tasks to avoid blocking callback response

Important Reminders

  • Callback URL must be a publicly accessible address
  • Server must respond within 15 seconds, otherwise it will be considered a timeout
  • If 3 consecutive retries fail, the system will stop sending callbacks
  • Please ensure the stability of callback processing logic to avoid callback failures due to exceptions
  • Generated video file URLs may have time limits, recommend downloading and saving promptly
  • MP4 video files are large, pay attention to storage space and download time
  • Ensure sufficient disk space to save video files
  • Video generation may take longer, please be patient for callback notifications

Troubleshooting

If you do not receive callback notifications, please check the following:

Alternative Solution

If you cannot use the callback mechanism, you can also use polling:

Poll Query Results

Use the get music video details endpoint to regularly query task status. We recommend querying every 30 seconds.
