# Generate session insights

> Trigger on-demand generation of session insights.

Returns ``already_exists`` if insights have already been generated.
Otherwise kicks off generation in the background. Poll the
GET insights endpoint to retrieve results once generation completes.

<Note>
  The `devin_id` is the session ID prefixed with `devin-` (e.g., `devin-abc123`).
</Note>

## Permissions

Requires a service user with the `ManageOrgSessions` permission at the organization level.

## Behavior

* If insights have already been generated (or generation is in progress), the endpoint returns `{ "status": "already_exists" }` without re-triggering.
* If no insights exist (or the last attempt failed), the endpoint triggers generation in the background and returns `{ "status": "started" }`.
* Poll the [GET session insights](/api-reference/v3/sessions/get-organizations-session-insights) endpoint to retrieve results once generation completes.
