Utilities

This section is only useful if you are not using one of our Web API core packages since they all contain a get_job_status method.

The job status API returns information about a job, including its completion status, whether or not it was successful, optionally the complete history (all information sent to the callback , and also optionally, a signed link to the images captured during that job.

Unlike the callback, where results are asynchronous and we POST to your server, the job status API is implemented on our servers and you make POST requests to it. Just like any other call to our servers, we use an encrypted signature to verify that you are the sender of the request, and the response will include a signature created by us for verification. You can find instructions on how to sign the request in the api access portion of our documentation or use the generate_signature method in one of our server -to-server library.
