Is Anaplan Async or Sync? Export task status

I am connecting to Anaplan API from AWS using Python. I am able to connect, run export etc.

https://private-anon-9863bbf5c2-anaplan.apiary-mock.com/1/3/workspaces/workspaceID/models/modelID/processes/processId/tasks/taskId.

I am getting the status of task as IN PROGRESS but expeting COMPLETE. I need some help putting how to iterate/wait until the task status returns COMPLETE.

appreciate your thoughts or advice

With Python, you just need to create a simple loop to check on the status of the response and perform until it meets your criteria:

task=""

while task != "Complete":

task=getTastStatus

This is just a psuedocode example, but something similar to this will work.

For your reference, there is a Python library for Anaplan in our knowledge base that handles all this, please take a moment to review and feel free to use if you like.
