https://www.lalal.ai/api/help could use a clarification on the /split/ endpoint.

Low priority, as someone who burned a chunk of the afternoon fighting with '{"status": "error", "error": "Required argument \\"params\\" not found"}'.

The Python example uses urllib but even copy-pasting this example I had problems. It might be worth adding examples with aiohttp and requests to the fray somewhere. The working operation of requests.post(f"https://www.lalal.ai/api/split/", headers=headers, data={"params":json.dumps([params])}) can be tricky to find, even with the documentation available.

It might be nice also to accept something like requests.post(..., json=params) alongside the existing multi-part form data. It's a little friendlier on the dev side.

I also encounter with the same question. But I found that the kind of code works as well:

 url_for_split = URL_API + "split/"
    headers = {
        "Authorization": f"license {license}",
    }

    query_args = {'id': file_id, 'stem': stem, 'filter': filter_type, 'splitter': splitter}

    async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
        res = await client.post(url_for_split, data=query_args, headers=headers)
        json_data = res.json()

        if json_data["status"] == "error":
            raise RuntimeError(json_data["error"])

I received 200 but with no completed results:
