​
buttons

After a Midjourney task completes, the clickable Discord buttons (U1-U4, V1-V4, 🔄) are returned as a buttons array. To perform a button’s action, use change + customId.

​
Batch query

curl -X POST https://openp.ai/mj/task/list-by-condition \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENPAI_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "ids": ["task1", "task2", "task3"] }'
Returns an array of task objects to reduce the number of polling requests.

​
Callback vs. polling

  • Callback (notifyHook): OpenPAI proactively POSTs to your service when the task status changes — recommended for production.
  • Polling (fetch): simple but with latency, suited to local scripts.
Example callback request (POST to notifyHook): 
{
  "id": "1737200000000000",
  "action": "IMAGINE",
  "status": "SUCCESS",
  "imageUrl": "https://...",
  "state": "<the state passed in at submission>"
}
