Retrieve ASIC Extract API
/asic_extract/{api_reference}
Polls the status of an ASIC extract previously queued via POST /asic_extract. Returns 202 while still processing, 200 with the full JSON payload when complete. Append ?pdf=true to get a formatted PDF copy instead of JSON. Retrieval calls aren't billable, so you can poll until the extract is ready without extra cost.
