This is the authoritative, resumable view of a job; everything on the SSE stream is derived from it. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi-v2.yaml get /api/v2/jobs/{id} openapi: 3.0.3 info: title: Comfy API v2 version: 2.0.0 description: | The official, versioned HTTP API for running ComfyUI workflows from external applications: upload inputs, submit a workflow, observe execution, retrieve results. Design principles: - **Poll-first.** Every capability is reachable via plain GET polling; the SSE stream is a live enhancement, never the source of truth. - **Everything is resumable.** Submission is idempotent; job state and outputs are retrievable by ID until `expires_at`. - **UUID identity, content-addressed dedup.** Assets are UUID-identified records over blobs keyed by a server-computed blake3 hash. The hash is nullable and may be computed lazily. - **Follow links, don't build URLs.** Responses embed follow-up URLs. Additive changes only within v2; breaking changes require v3. servers: - url: http://127.0.0.1:8189 description: Self-hosted (comfy-api-proxy) - url: https://cloud.comfy.org description: Comfy Cloud - url: https://{deployment}.run.comfy.app description: Serverless deployment variables: deployment: description: >- DNS-safe deployment id (subdomain label).

Comfy Cloud and self-hosted callers never receive it, so on those surfaces the field is always absent and a client should not wait for one. Where it is populated it is captured for every job, success and failure alike, since a job that succeeds while producing the wrong thing is exactly what a failure-only log cannot explain. It lives as long as the job it belongs to: nothing ages it out ahead of the job's own `expires_at`, so a job never outlives its log. **Absent, not null**, when there is none: the surface does not populate it at all, the job has not finished, the job predates log capture, or the job ran on the public demo deployment, which captures and stores the log like every other serverless deployment but withholds it on read, because that surface takes callers with no credential and a job id would otherwise be the only thing between one anonymous caller and another's run. Those cases are deliberately not distinguished, because a caller's next action is the same in all of them, which is to stop expecting a log. Returned by `GET /api/v2/jobs/{id}` only. It is deliberately absent from the job object on `POST /api/v2/jobs`, on `POST /api/v2/jobs/{id}/cancel`, and on the SSE `status` event: the last is pushed on every transition to every open stream, and a log on each frame would pay for the whole thing repeatedly to deliver it once. A client that streams to a terminal status and wants the log re-reads the job. metrics: type: object description: >- Values are nullable (a metric not yet available — e.g. `execution_ms` before a job starts running — is `null`, not omitted); the example below is deliberately all-non-null purely to work around a Spectral/nimma lint-tooling crash on a literal `null` inside a schema `example` combined with `additionalProperties.nullable: true` — the schema itself is unchanged and still allows null values at runtime. additionalProperties: type: integer nullable: true example: queue_ms: 9000 execution_ms: 42000 urls: $ref: '#/components/schemas/JobUrls' JobStatus: type: string enum: - queued - running - succeeded - canceling - canceled - failed - expired description: | Lifecycle: queued → running → succeeded | failed | expired; a cancel request moves running → canceling → canceled.

Outputs are assets: `id` is the asset UUID, retrievable via GET /api/v2/assets/{id} for as long as the job is retained. `hash` is lazily computed and may be null on the retrieval hot path. required: - node_id - name - type - content_type - size_bytes - id - hash - url - url_expires_at properties: node_id: type: string example: '9' name: type: string example: ComfyUI_00001_.png type: $ref: '#/components/schemas/OutputType' content_type: type: string example: image/png size_bytes: type: integer format: int64 example: 1848320 id: type: string description: Asset UUID. example: 9f8a1c0d-2b3e-4f56-... hash: type: string nullable: true description: '`blake3:`; null until lazily computed.' url: type: string format: uri url_expires_at: type: string format: date-time job_id: type: string nullable: true description: ID of the job that produced this output.

Diagnostics, not a contract on content: this is whatever the workflow's own code and nodes wrote to standard output, in the order they wrote it, so nothing about its shape is stable between runs or between releases of a build. It is **untrusted text** — a workflow chooses what goes in it — and must be rendered as plain text rather than interpreted. required: - text - truncated - captured_at properties: text: type: string description: The captured output. truncated: type: boolean description: >- `text` is the TAIL of a longer run. Implementations bound what they capture and store, so a workflow that prints megabytes keeps its last lines — where a failure normally is — instead of being dropped whole. True with an empty `text` means the log was captured and then shed entirely to fit. captured_at: type: string format: date-time description: When the run's output was read back off the worker. JobUrls: type: object description: >- Embedded follow-up links — follow these, don't build URLs. A link is either an absolute URL or a host-relative reference (leading `/`) that already includes any prefix the serving surface is mounted under (e.g. a serverless gateway's `/deployment/{deployment_id}/api/v2`). Clients MUST resolve a host-relative link against the request origin (scheme + authority), never against a configured base URL — joining it to a base URL that carries the same mount prefix duplicates the prefix. required: - self - events - cancel properties: self: type: string format: uri-reference events: type: string format: uri-reference cancel: type: string format: uri-reference ErrorEnvelope: type: object description: | Shared error envelope with machine-readable codes.

Deployment-scoped surfaces add: `deployment_not_ready` (429 + Retry-After — the deployment can still reach ready; retry) and `deployment_stopped` (422 — terminal deployment state; a retry cannot succeed without operator action). A 429 is disambiguated by `error.code` alone; clients should treat any 429 + Retry-After as "back off and retry". required: - error properties: error: type: object required: - code - message properties: code: type: string example: invalid_workflow message: type: string example: 'Node 12 (KSampler): required input ''model'' is not connected' details: type: object nullable: true additionalProperties: true example: node_errors: '12': - field: model reason: missing_input OutputType: type: string enum: - image - video - audio - text - file - latent description: Normalized output kind — nothing silently dropped. responses: Unauthorized: description: '`unauthorized` — missing or invalid credentials.' content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/ErrorEnvelope' Forbidden: description: '`forbidden` — authenticated but not allowed.' content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/ErrorEnvelope' NotFound: description: '`not_found`.' content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/ErrorEnvelope' RateLimited: description: >- `rate_limited` — the caller has exceeded the request rate limit for this account.
