# Denoise

`POST /denoise/async`

Returns `process_id` and `eta` to use as an efficient way to track the progress of the image denoising job:
  - Use the `Status` endpoints to check the status of this job using the returned `process_id`.
  - Use the `Download` endpoints to download the input or processed image (once it is ready).
  - Use the `Cancel` endpoint to cancel the job while it is in progress.

The same `process_id` and `eta` are also returned in the response headers as `X-Process-ID` and `X-ETA` respectively.

> The `eta` represents when the job is expected to finish in Unix time. We recommend using this to know when you can expect your (bulk) jobs to finish processing.
