## Quick Reference

- Get the inspection by its inspection ID to read its status.
- Check on a schedule: status is read through the API.
- Download the report once the inspection shows it's ready.
- Review the report before you approve or reject.

## Before You Start

- You've ordered the inspection and saved its inspection ID.
- You have a valid access token (see Getting an Access Token).

## Step 1: Read the Status

**Get the inspection.** Under Check Status, get the inspection with its inspection ID. The response has the status plus the line items, photos, documents, notes and audit history.

**Know the statuses.** Lender Open: ordered. In Progress: an inspector locked it and is working. Submitted: the inspector sent it back. Lender Approved or Lender Rejected: your decision.

## Step 2: Check on a Schedule

**Poll from your system.** RAZE doesn't push status changes to your system, so check on a schedule. The portal calls this step Check Status & Download Results (Polling).

## Step 3: Download the Report

**Wait until it's ready.** After the inspector submits, RAZE quality review checks the report before it reaches you. The inspection shows when the report document is ready.

**Download it.** Once it's ready, download the inspection report with the inspection ID under Check Status.

## Step 4: Read the Report

**What's inside.** The cover shows your logo, the property, the inspection number and the date. The draw sheet shows percent complete for each line item against the schedule of values. Photos are time and location stamped and link to the line items or questions they support. Inspector notes print on the report.

## Tips

**DO**
- Check status at a steady interval, not in a tight loop.
- Use the audit history to see who changed the status and when.
- Download and review the report before you decide.

**WATCH FOR**
- Download the report only after the inspection shows it's ready.
- Submitted isn't the decision: your approve or reject call is.
- Every status and report call needs the inspection ID.

## Troubleshooting

**Q: The report won't download.**
A: Check that the inspection shows the report document is ready. Download it only after that.

**Q: Can RAZE notify us instead?**
A: Status is read through the API. Your RAZE contact can include custom email notifications and alerts in your integration.

**Q: Where are the photos and line items?**
A: They come back when you get the inspection, with the documents, notes and audit history.
