# Batch - Get Status

GET https://api.sarvam.ai/speech-to-text/job/v1/{job_id}/status

Retrieve the current status and details of a speech to text bulk job, including progress and file-level information.

**Rate Limiting Best Practice:** To prevent rate limit errors and ensure optimal server performance, we recommend implementing a minimum 5-millisecond delay between consecutive status polling requests. This helps maintain system stability while still providing timely status updates.
