# Add Instrumental Callbacks

> When instrumental generation tasks are completed, the system will send results to your provided callback URL via POST request

When you submit a task to the Add Instrumental 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

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

### Callback Timing

The system will send callback notifications in the following situations:

* Text generation completed (`text` stage)
* First instrumental track generated (`first` stage)
* All instrumental tracks generated (`complete` stage)
* Instrumental generation task failed
* Error occurred during task processing

### Callback Method

* **HTTP Method**: POST
* **Content Type**: application/json
* **Timeout**: 15 seconds

## Callback Request Format

When the task is completed, the system will send a POST request to your `callBackUrl` in the following format:

## Best Practices

<Tip>
  ### Instrumental Generation Callback 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**: Ensure processing logic is idempotent as the same taskId may receive multiple callbacks
  4. **Quick Response**: Callback processing should return 200 status code quickly to avoid timeout
  5. **Asynchronous Processing**: Complex business logic should be processed asynchronously to avoid blocking callback response
  6. **Stage-based Processing**: Handle different callback stages (text, first, complete) with appropriate business logic
  7. **Audio Quality Assessment**: Implement audio quality assessment for generated instrumental tracks
  8. **Style Validation**: Validate that generated instrumental matches requested style and characteristics
</Tip>

<Warning>
  ### Important Reminders

  * Callback URL must be publicly accessible
  * Server must respond within 15 seconds, otherwise considered timeout
  * After 3 consecutive retry failures, the system will stop sending callbacks
  * Ensure stability of callback processing logic to avoid callback failures due to exceptions
  * Generated instrumental audio URLs may have time limits, recommend downloading and saving promptly
  * Pay attention to source audio quality to ensure optimal instrumental generation results
  * Instrumental generation has three stages, each stage will trigger callback notifications
  * Consider implementing audio format validation for source files
</Warning>

## Troubleshooting

If you don't receive callback notifications, please check the following:

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Network Connection Issues">
    * Confirm that the callback URL is accessible from the public internet
    * Check firewall settings to ensure inbound requests are not blocked
    * Verify that domain name resolution is correct
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="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
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Content Format Issues">
    * Confirm that the received POST request body is in JSON format
    * Check if Content-Type is application/json
    * Verify that JSON parsing is correct
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Instrumental Processing Issues">
    * Confirm that instrumental audio URLs are accessible
    * Check instrumental audio download permissions and network connectivity
    * Verify audio save path and permissions
    * Ensure source audio format is supported and valid
    * Verify instrumental quality meets your application requirements
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Callback Stage Processing">
    * Understand the differences and handling methods of the three callback stages
    * text stage: Only indicates text generation completed, no audio data
    * first stage: First instrumental track completed, contains data for one track
    * complete stage: All instrumental tracks completed, contains complete instrumental track list
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Audio Quality and Format">
    * Implement audio format validation for source files
    * Check instrumental audio quality and format compatibility
    * Assess if generated instrumental meets style requirements
    * Handle different instrumental styles and arrangements appropriately
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Alternative Solutions

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

<Card title="Poll Query Results" icon="radar" href="/suno-api/get-music-generation-details">
  Use the Get Music Generation Details interface to regularly query task status. Recommend querying every 30 seconds.
