You can check the status of any task by querying the task API:

https://api.beam.cloud/v2/task/{TASK_ID}/

This API returns the following data:

  • Task ID
  • Time the task started, or null if it hasn’t started yet (but is in the queue)
  • Time the task ended, or null if it is still running, or hasn’t started yet
  • The status of the task
