# Handling Results

> How to safely download, store, and cache results.

Many endpoints return a `result_url` that is valid for a limited time (commonly **1 hour**). Treat it as a temporary delivery URL.

## Best practice

1. Download the output immediately
2. Store it in your own storage (S3/GCS/R2, etc.)
3. Serve it from your CDN for end-user delivery

## Download example

```bash theme={null}
curl -L "$RESULT_URL" -o output.png
```

## Avoid broken pipelines

* Don’t enqueue `result_url` for “later” processing without downloading first
* If you need reprocessing, store the original input and your request parameters
