## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint after submitting an asynchronous job to the402.ai platform and needing to retrieve its completion status or result. It is the correct choice when you have a job_id from a prior the402.ai job submission and need to know if it succeeded, failed, or is still in progress — especially in polling loops or workflow automation steps.

## Known failure modes

- Job ID not found — returns 404 if the job_id does not exist or has expired
- Unauthorized — returns 401/403 if payment or auth credentials are missing or invalid
- Job still pending — returns a status indicating the job has not yet completed, requiring another poll
- Internal server error — returns 500 if the the402 platform is experiencing issues
- Invalid job ID format — returns 400 if the provided job ID does not match the expected format
