Overview

The Simulations API allows you to create, monitor, and manage simulation jobs. Simulations run asynchronously and can be tracked via status polling.

​
Job Lifecycle

  1. PENDING - Job created and queued
  2. RUNNING - Job is executing
  3. COMPLETED - Job finished successfully
  4. FAILED - Job encountered an error
  5. CANCELLED - Job was cancelled by user

​
Create Simulation

Create a new simulation job. The job runs asynchronously in the background.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/simulations \
  -H "X-API-Key: tp_your_api_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
