2. Get the result

Poll the job until its status is completed, failed or cancelled; Kling v3 Standard Motion Control typically takes about 2 min. The result is at output.outputs[0].url.

GET /v2/jobs/{id}
curl https://api.varg.ai/v2/jobs/$JOB_ID \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $VARG_API_KEY"

# Poll until "status" is completed, failed or cancelled.
# The result is in output.outputs[0].url
JavaScript
JavaScript
let current = job
while (!['completed', 'failed', 'cancelled'].includes(current.status)) {
  await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 3000))
  current = await (await fetch(`https://api.varg.ai/v2/jobs/${current.id}`, { headers })).json()
}
console.log(current.output?.outputs?.[0]?.url)
Python
Python
import time

while job["status"] not in ("completed", "failed", "cancelled"):
    time.sleep(3)
    job = requests.get(f"https://api.varg.ai/v2/jobs/{job['id']}", headers=headers).json()

print(job["output"]["outputs"][0]["url"])
Or take a webhook instead of polling

Add options.webhook_url and varg POSTs the finished job to it.
