    Hello @opsp ,

    Please see:

    DSS Key Mechanisms - Asynch for the complete details on asynchronous job processing by DSS:

    "...

    Jobs

    Each asynchronous request starts a job, and each job has a unique id. This job id is included in the monitor URL, which might look something like .../restapi/v1/Extractions/ExtractRawResult(ExtractionId='0x057e267fd3db1f86'), where 0x057e267fd3db1f86 is the asynchronous job's id. The monitor URL allows the caller to retrieve the results, status, progress percentage or error message. A job's results are available for seven days after the request was initiated. The Jobs Context (/jobs) provides a means to list the active (in process) and completed jobs. ..."

    The jobId and the job results should be valid for 7 days.
