API Reference (Unit /unit_api)

Conventions​

  • All Pioreactors have the /unit_api endpoints exposed.
  • Async endpoints return 202 Accepted with a task_id and result_url_path.
  • Poll GET /unit_api/task_results/{task_id} until status is succeeded or failed.
  • File download endpoints return binary bodies; use the response content-type to handle them.
  • Path parameters are shown inline in the endpoint URL.
  • Request/response examples are the canonical shapes; omit optional fields you do not need.
  • Errors have the following schema:
{
  "error": "Human-readable error message",
  "cause": "Human-readable cause (defaults to error if not set)",
  "remediation": "Suggested fix or next step",
  "status": 400
}
