# Continuous Polling

## Process

In this method, we provide you with an endpoint where your server can continuously check if there has been a change of status for a specific order. After consuming our endpoint, you need to interpret the payload sent by us and update the status within your system.

## Configuration

You'll need to consume the [completed endpoint](/developers/en/shippify-api/deliveries/get-delivery-information.md), this will provide you with complete information about the delivery, including its current status as well as the reasons for state changes.
