Every job moves through six statuses:
waiting → dispatched → running → complete
                              → failed
                   → cancelled
StatusMeaning
waitingSaved, queued for dispatch
dispatchedSent to the execution provider (Trigger.dev)
runningProvider has started processing
completeFinished successfully — output available
failedErrored — see error.code and error.message
cancelledCancelled before completion

Each transition

Submission → waiting. Auth, rate limit, plan, credit pre-check, schema validation. If all pass, job is saved. Dispatch → dispatched. Routed to an available provider. The provider receives presigned URLs for input download and output upload. Execution → running. Provider downloads inputs, runs the job, uploads the result. Completion → complete. Provider calls back, credits are deducted, webhook fires (if configured). Failure → failed. No credits charged. Common codes:
CodeMeaning
PROVIDER_ERRORProcessing failed on the execution provider
PROVIDER_TIMEOUTJob exceeded the maximum allowed time
VALIDATION_ERRORInput file invalid or corrupted
DISPATCH_EXHAUSTEDJob could not be dispatched after all retry attempts
Full catalogue: Error codes.

Timeouts

Each job type has a max execution time. Exceeding it auto-fails with PROVIDER_TIMEOUT; credits are refunded. A background job runs every 2 minutes to detect stuck jobs that were dispatched or running but never reported back.

Retries

Dispatch failures retry up to 3 times with exponential backoff. After the third failure the job moves to the dead-letter queue and is marked failed. To manually retry a failed job:
curl -X POST https://api.rendobar.com/jobs/job_abc/retry \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer rb_live_YOUR_KEY"

Real-time updates

Two ways to stop polling:
  • Webhooks — push events to your server. Recommended for production.
  • WebSocket (dashboard) — the dashboard streams creation, status, progress, and balance over a per-org hub. Currently dashboard-only; programmatic clients should use webhooks.
