API limitations

By default there is no restrictions to use the api.
However, it must be used wisely and for the PostGreen instance, we may ban IPs interracting too much with the instance.

You can poll the job every 5 minutes.
- Either the job is in PACK_GROUP_CREATED, there is no point in querying,
- Either the job is in PROCESSING_ERROR (there the files are not correct), it is useless to query
- Either the job is still in progress, ask in 5 minutes.

Then you look at the deliveries.
- if no delivery created, then there is generally a problem with the recipient address. It is useless to question further, you have to correct the address in the interface (or set up the calls to retrieve the address and correct it)
- if delivery created, then nothing to do, it should be in READY or OUTPUTTED, no need to query anymore, it doesn't evolve anymore at this level.
After that, there's no point in querying the delivery. From the next day, once a day, query the shipment to retrieve the recommended tracking number, for example. And the status of the shipment.

Currently in the application there is no concept of final status.
For mail: the PND is a final status, and two months after sending (without PND) the status of the envelope is considered final.
For the registered: the PND is final, the return AR is final. And two months after sending (without PND or AR), the status is considered final.
Recommendation: scan every day for 1 month. 99% should be done. Then well maybe once a week for more than a month...

About the address page

The address page is not an option you can configure on the delivery creation process.
The address page exists or not and it's configured in the service
