Answers a ``queued`` task; poll its ``poll_url`` about every ``retry_after_ms``. Nothing is charged until a poll finds the task finished, and then the task's Meshy credits are billed at cost. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi/moda-public-api.yaml post /media/generate-3d openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Moda Public API description: > Programmatic access to Moda's canvas design platform. Create designs, export assets, manage brand kits, and run AI design tasks. ## Versioning Pin response shapes with a calendar-dated `Moda-Version` header (e.g. `2026-05-01`). **The pin is global** — it applies to every endpoint in the request, not just the one you adopted it for, so raising it to use a new endpoint also moves your other responses to that version's shapes. ### Migrating `2026-04-12` → `2026-05-01` - **Tasks** move from the flat `JobResponse` (`job_id`, `canvas_url`, `can_export`) to the canonical `Task` envelope. The export artifact is now under `result.export` as `{url, format, page_count}`; update any code that read the export URL from the old top-level fields. - **Multi-page PNG/JPEG exports are delivered as a single `.zip`** of per-page files (`page-1.png`, …), so `result.export.format` is `zip`. For one bundled document instead, request `format=pdf` or `pptx`; for a single image, pass `page_number`. version: 1.0.0 x-moda-api-version: '2026-05-01' servers: - url: https://api.moda.app/v1 description: Production security: [] tags: - name: canvases description: List, search, read, export, and share canvases - name: tasks description: Start and monitor AI design tasks - name: organizations description: List organizations and teams - name: credits description: Check credit balance and usage - name: brand-kits description: Manage brand kits - name: remix description: Duplicate and edit canvases - name: share-links description: Resolve share URLs to canvas identifiers - name: uploads description: Upload files for use as attachments - name: voices description: >- Managed voices: capabilities, the voice catalog, favorites and pronunciation dictionaries - name: usage description: Aggregate API usage stats for the caller's team - name: feedback description: Submit product feedback from Voyager - name: voyager description: 'Voyager desktop sign-in: OAuth config, device registration and revocation' - name: embed description: Signed iframe embed sessions - name: web description: 'Metered web research: search and page reading' - name: websites description: >- Create, update, publish, screenshot, and manage hosted multi-page static sites - name: drive description: >- Organize the workspace: folders, the folder tree, and item move/rename/visibility/delete for folders, canvases, and files paths: /media/generate-3d: post: tags: - media summary: Generate 3D description: >- Start one Meshy 3D task (metered, paid plan): text, image or multi-image to 3D, retexture, remesh, UV unwrap, convert, rigging, animations or text to motion. ``input`` is Meshy's request body for ``operation`` (docs.meshy.ai); a field naming an earlier task takes that task's ``task_`` id.
