​
Polling Best Practices

Recommended polling strategy:
  • Poll every 2-5 seconds for jobs in queued or processing status
  • Stop polling when status is completed, failed, or cancelled
  • Implement exponential backoff for rate limit compliance

​
Python Polling Example

import requests
import time

def wait_for_completion(job_id, auth_token, max_wait=300):
    """Poll job status until completion or timeout"""
    url = f"https://spideriq.di-atomic.com/api/v1/jobs/{job_id}/status"
    headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {auth_token}"}

    start_time = time.time()
    while time.time() - start_time < max_wait:
        response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
        data = response.json()

        status = data.get("status")
        print(f"Status: {status}")

        if status in ["completed", "failed", "cancelled"]:
            return data

        time.sleep(3)  # Poll every 3 seconds

    raise TimeoutError("Job did not complete within timeout period")

Status Flow

​
Next Steps

When status is completed: When status is failed:
  • Check error message in results endpoint
  • Review job parameters and retry if needed
