# Get job status

> Retrieve the current processing status of a job.



## OpenAPI

````yaml catch-all-api get /catchAll/status/{job_id}
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: NewsCatcher CatchAll API
  version: 1.6.3
  description: >
    CatchAll is a web search API that generates unique datasets that don't exist
    anywhere else on the web. Built on NewsCatcher's proprietary real-world
    event index, it delivers state-of-the-art recall—finding all relevant
    events, not just top results.


    ### Authentication


    All endpoints except /health and /version require `x-api-key` header. If the
    key is invalid or missing, the API returns the `403 Forbidden` error.


    ### Job workflow


    1. (Optional) Get suggestions via /catchAll/initialize

    2. Submit a query via /catchAll/submit with optional date ranges and custom
    validators/enrichments

    3. Poll /catchAll/status/{job_id} until completed (10-15 minutes)

    4. Retrieve results via /catchAll/pull/{job_id}


    ### Monitor workflow


    1. Create successful job via /catchAll/submit

    2. Create monitor via /catchAll/monitors/create with schedule

    3. Retrieve aggregated results via /catchAll/monitors/pull/{monitor_id}


    ### Webhook workflow


    1. Create a webhook via `POST /catchAll/webhooks`

    2. Attach it to a job or monitor via `POST
    /catchAll/webhooks/{webhook_id}/resources`,
       or pass `webhook_ids` at job or monitor creation time
    3. Receive HTTP notifications at the configured URL when each job completes


    ### Company search workflow


    1. Create a dataset via `POST /catchAll/datasets/` or `POST
    /catchAll/datasets/upload`

    2. Wait for the dataset `latest_status` to reach `ready`

    3. Submit a job with `connected_dataset_ids` pointing to your dataset

    4. Retrieve results — each record includes a `connected_entities` array
       with relevance scores per matched company

    ### Important notes


    **Dynamic schemas**: Response schemas are generated dynamically by LLMs.
    Field names in the `enrichment` object may vary and are not deterministic
    across jobs unless explicitly specified.

    description: >
      Operations to create and manage reusable webhook endpoints.


      A webhook is a named HTTP endpoint that receives a POST notification

      when a job or monitor completes. Create webhooks once at the organization

      level and attach them to any number of jobs or monitors via `webhook_ids`.

      Supports Slack, Microsoft Teams, and generic HTTP targets with
      configurable

      delivery modes, authentication, and headers.

  - name: Entities
    description: >
      Operations to create, update, and delete company entities.


      Entities are the building blocks of Company Watchlist. Each entity
      represents

      a company (or person) you want to track. Add identifying information such
      as

      domain, alternative names, and key persons to improve matching quality.

  - name: Datasets
    description: >
      Operations to create and manage datasets of entities.


      A dataset is a named collection of entities — think of it as a watchlist
      or

      portfolio. Connect a dataset to a job via `connected_dataset_ids` to
      activate

      Company Watchlist. Datasets can be reused across multiple jobs and
      monitors.

      Operations to create, organize, and manage projects.

      A project is a named container for jobs, monitors, and datasets. Group
      related resources by use case, team, or client, and share them with
      teammates. Resources can be assigned at creation time or post-hoc.

        Current job processing status. Jobs progress through these stages:


        - `submitted`: Job queued, waiting to start processing.

        - `analyzing`: Extracting keywords, generating search queries, and
        creating validators/extractors.

        - `fetching`: Retrieving web pages.

        - `clustering`: Grouping similar web pages into clusters.

        - `enriching`: Validating clusters and extracting structured data.

        - `completed`: Job finished successfully, results ready.

        - `failed`: Job processing failed.


        Poll `/catchAll/status/{job_id}` every 30-60 seconds until status is
        `completed` (typically 10-15 minutes).
