Long-Running Operation

Answering 202 at once and letting the client poll a status URL.

What is Long-Running Operation?

For a long-running operation, the API answers 202 Accepted straight away with a status URL, and the client checks that URL until the job is done.

POST /reports → 202 Accepted, Location: /reports/jobs/55
GET /reports/jobs/55 → { "status": "running" }
