job_status

Certain Rubrik operations (on-demand snapshots, live mounts, etc.) may not complete instantaneously. In those cases we have the ability to monitor the status of the job through a job status url provided in the actions API response body. This function will perform a GET operation on the provided url and return the jobs status.
