the collections-api has a call to retrieve the async status. All this does is tell you failure/success. and a message: found [9cfb05af-b778-416e-b3c6-8b8e62345f4e] in failed tasks
It would be nice if instead it retrieved the information written to the failed tasks queue! So I used the zkcli.sh command to retrieve it to a file, but the data retrieved is binary. How do I convert it to utf-8 and a readable format? I have noticed that sometimes collections api calls timeout after 180 seconds when run synchronously, but the job actually seems to be serviced as an asynchronous job. If I could easily find these in the /overseer collection maps it would help immensely, but they need to be readable, or have a documented api for reading them also a minor issue. The async job id was 9cfb05af-b778-416e-b3c6-8b8e62345f4e but in failed tasks it was mapped as mn-9cfb05af-b778-416e-b3c6-8b8e62345f4e. Why the "mn-" prepended to the async ID? -- This message and any attachment are confidential and may be privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure.
