status.code

The batch file processing status. Possible values:

  • uploading - the batch reference is saved and the gzipped file can now be uploaded. The batch stays in this status until the file is fully uploaded. After receiving the file, Sitecore CDP validates it and changes the status to file_uploaded.

  • file_uploaded - Sitecore CDP received the gzipped file, and the file is now in the processing queue. This status is only available in the inspect endpoint.

  • processing - Sitecore CDP is processing the gzipped file.

  • success - Sitecore CDP successfully processed all JSON records in the gzipped file. You can now verify that CDP ingested the uploaded data.

  • corrupted - the MD5 checksum or the size of the gzipped file does not match the values provided by the developer.

  • error - Sitecore CDP did not process at least one JSON record in the gzipped file. You can download the error log to troubleshoot the issue. The location of the log file is the value of the status.log parameter.
