Status

Status

To check the indexing status of your app, use the /status endpoint or the _meta field in the GraphQL API.

Usage

Use the indexing status to quickly confirm that Ponder is working as expected. You can also poll the status to confirm that a specific block number has been ingested by Ponder before refetching a query client-side (for example, in a form submit handler).
