Music Cover Generation Callbacks

When music cover generation is complete, the system will call this callback to notify results.

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

Callback Mechanism Overview

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

Callback Timing

The system will send callback notifications in the following situations:

Cover generation task completed successfully
Cover generation task failed
Error occurred during task processing

Callback Method

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

Callback Request Format

When the task is complete, the system will send a POST request to your callBackUrl:

{
  "code": 200,
  "data": {
    "images": [
      "https://tempfile.aiquickdraw.com/s/1753958521_6c1b3015141849d1a9bf17b738ce9347.png",
      "https://tempfile.aiquickdraw.com/s/1753958524_c153143acc6340908431cf0e90cbce9e.png"
    ],
    "taskId": "21aee3c3c2a01fa5e030b3799fa4dd56"
  },
  "msg": "success"
}

{
  "code": 501,
  "msg": "Cover generation failed",
  "data": {
    "taskId": "21aee3c3c2a01fa5e030b3799fa4dd56",
    "images": null
  }
}

Status Code Description

Callback Reception Examples

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

Node.js
Python
Java
PHP

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

app.use(express.json());

app.post('/suno-cover-callback', (req, res) => {
  const { code, msg, data } = req.body;
  
  console.log('Received cover generation callback:', {
    taskId: data.taskId,
    status: code,
    message: msg
  });
  
  if (code === 200) {
    // Task completed successfully
    console.log('Cover generation completed');
    const images = data.images;
    
    if (images && images.length > 0) {
      console.log('Generated cover images:');
      images.forEach((imageUrl, index) => {
        console.log(`Cover ${index + 1}: ${imageUrl}`);
      });
      
      // Process cover images
      // Can download images, save locally, update database, etc.
      downloadImages(images, data.taskId);
    }
    
  } else {
    // Task failed
    console.log('Cover generation failed:', msg);
    
    // Handle failure cases...
  }
  
  // Return 200 status code to confirm callback received
  res.status(200).json({ status: 'received' });
});

// Download images function
async function downloadImages(imageUrls, taskId) {
  const fs = require('fs');
  const path = require('path');
  const https = require('https');
  
  // Create directory
  const dir = `covers/${taskId}`;
  if (!fs.existsSync(dir)) {
    fs.mkdirSync(dir, { recursive: true });
  }
  
  for (let i = 0; i < imageUrls.length; i++) {
    const url = imageUrls[i];
    const filename = path.join(dir, `cover_${i + 1}.png`);
    
    try {
      await downloadFile(url, filename);
      console.log(`Cover saved: ${filename}`);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error(`Download failed: ${error.message}`);
    }
  }
}

function downloadFile(url, filename) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const file = fs.createWriteStream(filename);
    https.get(url, (response) => {
      response.pipe(file);
      file.on('finish', () => {
        file.close();
        resolve();
      });
    }).on('error', (err) => {
      fs.unlink(filename, () => {}); // Delete failed file
      reject(err);
    });
  });
}

  console.log('Callback server running on port 3000');

Best Practices

Callback URL Configuration Recommendations

Use HTTPS: Ensure callback URL uses HTTPS protocol for data transmission security
Verify Source: Verify the legitimacy of request sources in callback processing
Idempotent Processing: The same taskId may receive multiple callbacks, ensure processing logic is idempotent
Quick Response: Callback processing should return 200 status code quickly to avoid timeout
Asynchronous Processing: Complex business logic should be processed asynchronously to avoid blocking callback response
Image Management: Download and save images promptly, noting URL validity period
Error Retry: Implement retry mechanism for failed image downloads

Important Reminders

Callback URL must be a publicly accessible address
Server must respond within 15 seconds, otherwise it will be considered timeout
If 3 consecutive retries fail, the system will stop sending callbacks
Please ensure stability of callback processing logic to avoid callback failures due to exceptions
Cover image URLs may have validity periods, recommend downloading and saving promptly
Usually generates 2 different style cover images for selection
Note handling exceptions for failed image downloads

Troubleshooting

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

Network Connection Issues

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

Server Response Issues

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

Content Format Issues

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

Image Processing Issues

Confirm image URLs are accessible
Check image download permissions and network connection
Verify file save path and permissions
Note image URL validity period limitations

Alternative Solutions

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

Poll Query Results

Use the Get Cover Details endpoint to periodically query task status. We recommend querying every 30 seconds.
