Read https://docs.morphllm.com/sdk/components/reflexes/batch and replace our per-row Reflex classification loop with a batch call. If we need the labels back inline within one request, use POST /v1/reflex/synchronous_predict_batch (up to 300 rows). If we're labeling a backlog offline (evals, trace scans, dataset cleanup), upload to POST /v1/reflex/asynchronous_batches/upload (up to 10,000 rows) and poll for results. Plan the row-building first, then implement and verify results map back to our records by id.
Run a Reflex over many texts in one job instead of a request per row. Two modes share the same row shape — pick by volume and how soon you need the labels. See the Reflexes overview for what a Reflex is, and Train a Custom Reflex to make your own.

Every row carries its own id (echoed back so you can map results to your records), a model, and the text to classify. A row can name several models to run all of them over the same text at once.

Synchronous batch

POST /v1/reflex/synchronous_predict_batch
One request in, every label back in the same response. Runs on the realtime engine — billed at the realtime rate, capped at 300 rows per call, and processed with internal concurrency so the call returns in seconds. Reach for it to label a page of results, a form submission, or any small set where you want the answer inline.
FieldTypeRequiredDescription
requestsarrayYesUp to 300 rows.
requests[].idstringYesYour correlation key, echoed back on each result.
requests[].modelstring / arrayYesOne model name, or an array to run several over the same text. A default Reflex (jailbreak, guardrail, …) or one you trained.
requests[].textstringYesThe text to classify.

      {"id": "msg-2", "model": ["guardrail", "jailbreak"], "text": "what time is the standup?"}
    ]
  }'
Each result echoes your id and carries one prediction per model on that row. A prediction mirrors the /predict response — a mode and one classes entry per label, with the winner marked "selected": true.

A row that fails validation (e.g. empty text) comes back as { "id": ..., "error": { "type", "message" } } instead of predictions — other rows still return normally, so check for error per row. One exception: naming a model that doesn’t exist is rejected up front and fails the whole request with 404 model_not_found (no partial results), so validate model names before you batch.

Asynchronous batch

For larger or cost-sensitive jobs, upload the rows and pick up results later. This is the discounted batch tier: rows queue durably, a background worker drains them, and you poll for progress. Three calls — upload, poll, fetch.
model must be an array here, even for a single model (["jailbreak"]) — a bare string is rejected. It’s the one shape difference from the synchronous endpoint.
1

Upload the batch

POST /v1/reflex/asynchronous_batches/upload. Up to 10,000 rows, each id unique, each text350,000 characters. Returns immediately with a batch_id once the rows are queued — it does not wait for classification.
FieldTypeRequiredDescription
requestsarrayYesUp to 10,000 rows.
requests[].idstringYesUnique within the batch. Echoed back on each result.
requests[].modelarrayYesOne or more model names. Always an array.
requests[].textstringYesThe text to classify. ≤ 350,000 characters.
Pass an Idempotency-Key header to make retries safe — replaying the same key returns the existing batch (with 200 instead of 201), never a duplicate.

Poll for progress

GET /v1/reflex/asynchronous_batches/{batch_id}. Same shape as upload, with request_counts advancing as the worker drains the queue. status moves queued → in_progress → completed.
cURL
curl "https://api.morphllm.com/v1/reflex/asynchronous_batches/rbatch-a1b2c3d4-..." \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
The queue drains at a steady, throttled rate (~2 rows/sec) so batch work never competes with realtime predictions. Small batches finish in seconds; a full 10,000-row batch takes roughly 80 minutes. Poll on an interval — don’t hold a request open waiting.

Fetch results

GET /v1/reflex/asynchronous_batches/{batch_id}/results. Returns the status block plus a results array — one entry per row, keyed by your id, as inline JSON (not a file to download).
cURL
curl "https://api.morphllm.com/v1/reflex/asynchronous_batches/rbatch-a1b2c3d4-.../results" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
A row is completed (carries predictions, one per model), failed (carries an error), or still pending if you fetch before the batch finishes.

  "id": "rbatch-a1b2c3d4-...",

      "status": "failed",
      "error": { "type": "input_too_long", "message": "text exceeds the token limit" }
    }
  ]
}

Upload, poll, and collect

The whole loop end to end — upload, poll until done, fetch, then map results back to your records by id.
Python
import time, requests

BASE = "https://api.morphllm.com/v1/reflex/asynchronous_batches"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"}

# rows: [{"id": "...", "model": ["guardrail"], "text": "..."}, ...]
batch_id = requests.post(
    f"{BASE}/upload",
    headers={**headers, "Idempotency-Key": "trace-scan-2026-06-18"},
    json={"requests": rows},
).json()["id"]

while True:
    batch = requests.get(f"{BASE}/{batch_id}", headers=headers).json()
    if batch["status"] == "completed":
        break
    time.sleep(10)

results = requests.get(f"{BASE}/{batch_id}/results", headers=headers).json()["results"]
by_id = {r["id"]: r for r in results}

Classifying traces

The most common batch job is labeling a backlog of agent traces — scanning past conversations for jailbreaks, guardrail violations, loops, or leaked thinking. Run it without code from the Traces dashboard: select conversations, pick the Reflexes to run, and the labels land back on each trace. Under the hood that’s an asynchronous batch over the text of each turn.

Errors

OpenAI-shaped: { "error": { "message", "type", "param", "code" } }param appears only on invalid_request_error, and code is null for the validation cases below. These are request-level failures; an individual row that fails to classify is reported per row in results (see above), not as a request error.
StatustypeWhen
401authentication_errorMissing (missing_api_key) or invalid (invalid_api_key) key.
400invalid_request_errorValidation failed — a duplicate id, text over 350k chars, model not an array (async), or more than 10,000 rows (async). param names the offending field.
413invalid_request_error(sync) more than 300 rows in one call.
404invalid_request_errormodel_not_found (a named model doesn’t exist) or batch_not_found (unknown batch_id, async).
409invalid_request_errormodel_not_ready — a named model hasn’t finished training.
