AceDataCloud API Usage Guide

Complete guide for using AceDataCloud's AI-powered data services API.

Getting Started

1. Create an Account

Register at platform.acedata.cloud.

2. Subscribe to a Service

Browse available services and click Get to subscribe. Most services include free quota.

3. Create API Credentials

Go to your service's Credentials page and create an API Token.

Full details: See authentication for token types and usage.

SDK Integration (OpenAI-Compatible)

For chat completion services, use the standard OpenAI SDK:

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="YOUR_API_TOKEN",
    base_url="https://api.acedata.cloud/v1"
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
)

import OpenAI from "openai";

const client = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: "YOUR_API_TOKEN",
  baseURL: "https://api.acedata.cloud/v1"
});

const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "gpt-4.1",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello!" }]
});

Request Patterns

Synchronous APIs

Some APIs return results immediately (e.g., face transform, search):

curl -X POST https://api.acedata.cloud/face/analyze \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"image_url": "https://example.com/photo.jpg"}'

Async Task APIs

Most generation APIs (images, video, music) are asynchronous.

Full details: See async task polling for the submit-and-poll pattern.

Error Handling

HTTP Code	Meaning	Action
400	Bad request	Check request parameters
401	Unauthorized	Check API token
403	Forbidden	Content filtered or insufficient permissions
429	Rate limited	Wait and retry with backoff
500	Server error	Retry or contact support

Error response format:

{
  "error": {
    "code": "token_mismatched",
    "message": "Invalid or expired token"
  }
}

Billing

• Each API call deducts from your subscription balance (remaining_amount)
• Cost varies by service, model, and usage (tokens, requests, data size)
• Check balance at platform.acedata.cloud
• Most services offer free trial quota

Gotchas

• Tokens are service-scoped by default — create a global token if you need cross-service access
• Async APIs return a task_id — always use callback_url to get the task_id immediately, then poll for results
• Avoid wait: true — it blocks for the full generation duration and will time out for video/music tasks
• Rate limits vary by service tier — upgrade your plan if hitting limits
• All timestamps are in UTC
