API Designer and async function

F61395A9B8

Hello, i'm trying to run a background task when my endpoint is call.

Here is a simple example of what i am trying to do.

import asyncio

async def run_task_background(parameters):

    job_uid = await run_task(parameters)

    #add job_uid in a table


def api_py_function():
  asyncio.run(run_task_background(parameters))

  return {"status": "Creating task"}

I tried a lot of different formulation but i always receive an error :

Failed to run function : <class 'TypeError'> : Object of type coroutine is not JSON serializable

Does somebody know what i am doing wrong ?

Thank you

Hi,

I tried to reproduce this issue by simulating an async task and calling it, and it worked fine:

import asyncio

async def run_task(parameters):
    await asyncio.sleep(5)  # Simulating async work
    return f"Task completed with parameters: {parameters}"

async def run_task_background(parameters):

    job_uid = await run_task(parameters)

def api_py_function(parameters):
  asyncio.run(run_task_background(parameters))

  return {"status": "Creating task"}

Result: 

{"status":"Creating task"}

Could you try this by adding the parameter in your api_py_function and see if the same error occurs?
