Music Video Generation Callbacks

When you submit a music video generation task to the Suno API, you can use the callBackUrl parameter to set a callback URL. The system will automatically push the results to your specified address when the task is completed.

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

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": "success",
  "data": {
    "task_id": "task_id_5bbe7721119d",
    "video_url": "video_url_847715e66259"
  }
}

Status Code Description

code

integer

required

Callback status code indicating task processing result:

Status Code	Description
200	Success - Request has been processed successfully
500	Internal Error - Please try again later

msg

string

required

Status message providing detailed status description

data.task_id

string

required

Unique identifier of the generation task, consistent with the task_id returned when you submitted the task

data.video_url

string

Accessible video URL, returned on success, valid for 14 days

Callback Reception Examples

Here are example codes for receiving callbacks in popular programming languages:

Node.js
Python
PHP

const express = require('express');
const app = express();

app.use(express.json());

app.post('/suno-video-callback', (req, res) => {
  const { code, msg, data } = req.body;
  
  console.log('Received music video 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}`);
    console.log('Note: Video link is valid for 14 days');
    
    // Process generated video
    // Can download video, save locally, etc.
    
  } else {
    // Task failed
    console.log('Music video generation failed:', msg);
    
    // Handle failure cases...
  }
  
  // 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

Use HTTPS: Ensure your callback URL uses HTTPS protocol for secure data transmission
Verify Source: Verify the legitimacy of the request source in callback processing
Idempotent Processing: The same task_id may receive multiple callbacks, ensure processing logic is idempotent
Quick Response: Callback processing should return a 200 status code as quickly as possible to avoid timeout
Asynchronous Processing: Complex business logic should be processed asynchronously to avoid blocking callback response
Timely Download: Video links are valid for only 14 days, recommend downloading and saving promptly

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
Video URL is valid for 14 days, please download and save to local storage promptly
Video files are usually large, pay attention to network stability and storage space when downloading

Troubleshooting

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

Network Connection Issues

Confirm that the callback URL is accessible from the public network
Check firewall settings to ensure inbound requests are not blocked
Verify that domain name resolution is correct

Server Response Issues

Ensure the server returns HTTP 200 status code within 15 seconds
Check server logs for error messages
Verify that the interface path and HTTP method are correct

Content Format Issues

Confirm that the received POST request body is in JSON format
Check that Content-Type is application/json
Verify that JSON parsing is correct

Video Processing Issues

Confirm that the video URL is accessible
Check video download permissions and network connections
Verify that storage space is sufficient
Note that video files may be large, download time may be long

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.
