Retrieve the status of a variations job. While it is pending or processing, keep polling; once completed, the response carries the produced images, each with a presigned url valid for 24 hours. Only jobs your organization created are visible; any other id returns 404 not_found. Requires the images.transform scope.

Example: completed job

200 OK

{
  "id": "c4d5e6f7-8a9b-4c1d-2e3f-4a5b6c7d8e9f",
  "status": "completed",
  "created_at": "2026-07-18T10:12:00Z",
  "credits_used": 5,
  "images": [
    {
      "id": "1a2b3c4d-5e6f-4a7b-8c9d-0e1f2a3b4c5d",
      "url": "https://cdn.samsa.ai/user-.../var.png?X-Amz-Signature=...",
      "thumbnail_url": null,
      "width": 1024,
      "height": 1024,
      "seed": null
    }
  ],
  "error": null
}

Pass a webhook_url on the original variations request to receive a signed callback instead of polling. See Webhooks.
