# API · Tasks · Get the result/status of an async (Celery) task by ID

`GET /api/v1/tasks/{task_id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.simplified.com`
- URL: `https://api.simplified.com/api/v1/tasks/{task_id}`
- Auth: API key in header `Authorization`

Retrieve the status and result of an async task by its `task_id`.
Status values: PENDING, STARTED, SUCCESS, FAILURE, RETRY, REVOKED.

Note: for most async tools (`generateImage`, media/* operations) the
toolkit middleware **already polls this for you** and returns the final
result — you rarely need to call it directly. Use it manually only when a
long job (e.g. video generation) exceeds the auto-poll window and you got
a `task_id` back.

## Path parameters

- `task_id` string, required

## Response `200`

Task status and result

- unknown

## Other responses

- `404`: Task not found
