All processing in Chunkr is handled through a task-based system. When you submit a file, a new task is created, and you receive a task_id. Use this ID to get a task asynchronously. This asynchronous approach allows you to submit long-running jobs without tying up your application. Once the task status is Succeeded, the full processing results are available.
