Response

Success:

{
  "errorId": 0,
  "taskId": "49f9f60a-c809-4af0-93c0-0409b72e67e0"
}

The server returns errorId = 0 and a taskId when the task is created successfully. Failure:

{
  "errorId": 1,
  "errorCode": "",
  "errorDescription": ""
}

The server returns errorId = 1 along with the corresponding errorCode.

2. Get the task result

Request

POST https://api.omocaptcha.com/v2/getTaskResult

{
  "clientKey": "OMO_API_KEY",
  "taskId": "49f9f60a-c809-4af0-93c0-0409b72e67e0"
}

Response

Success:

{
  "errorId": 0,
  "errorCode": "",
  "errorDescription": "",
  "status": "ready",
  "solution": {
    "swap_positions": [4, 7]
  }
}

The server returns errorId = 0 and status = ready. Read the result from the solution field.

solution.swap_positions is a pair of cell indices to swap on the 3×3 grid. Cells are numbered from 0 to 8, left-to-right and top-to-bottom (row 1: 0, 1, 2 – row 2: 3, 4, 5 – row 3: 6, 7, 8). Click or drag the icon from the first cell onto the second cell (or vice versa) to solve the captcha.

Processing:

{
  "status": "processing",
  "errorId": 0,
  "errorCode": "",
  "errorDescription": ""
}

The server returns errorId = 0 and status = processing. Wait 2 seconds and poll again. Failure:

{
  "errorId": 1,
  "errorCode": "ERROR_JOB_STATUS",
  "errorDescription": "Job failed",
  "status": "fail",
  "solution": {}
}

The server returns errorId = 1 when the task fails.
