## Execution behavior

A `200` response completed inline. A `202` response was queued; poll `GET /jobs/{id}` until the job reaches `completed` or `failed`. Use an `Idempotency-Key` when retrying must not create a duplicate logical job.

See [jobs and results](https://docs.upscrape.com/docs/api/jobs), [errors and retries](https://docs.upscrape.com/docs/api/errors), and [idempotency](https://docs.upscrape.com/docs/api/idempotency).
