# Result Sets

Retrieve the results of an asynchronous operation.

Use this endpoint to retrieve the results of an asynchronous operation as a downloadable, compressed JSON file.

**Additional Notes:**

* When using an asynchronous AdeptID endpoint, callers will receive an immediate response containing a `result_set_id` and a `result_set_link`.  To retrieve the results, the `result_set_id` must be sent via [Result Sets](https://docs.adept-id.com/reference/getresultset) (`result_set_link` pre-formats the URL for this step).
* Initially, while processing of the original request is still ongoing, the response from [Result Sets](https://docs.adept-id.com/reference/getresultset) will read `"state": "pending"`.
* When processing has completed, the response from [Result Sets](https://docs.adept-id.com/reference/getresultset) will read `"state": "done"` and contain a `file_url` to download a compressed JSON file containing the operation's results.
