Polling

Polling is asking a panel's API for order status on a repeating schedule, done because the common API convention gives you no way of being notified when an order changes state.

A polling loop keeps a list of open orders, sends a status request for each, compares what comes back with what it stored, and records anything that changed. Orders that reach a final status leave the list. A panel's own order page works the same way, so the status a customer sees on screen is the last answer the panel received rather than a live reading of anything. A loop is the only way round because nothing pushes: the Perfect Panel document that the ten in the set publish names no webhook and no callback, which is what the reading at /do-any-smm-panels-support-webhooks/ found on all ten.

The first thing to look for is whether the panel accepts several order IDs in one status request, commonly in a separate field with the IDs separated by commas. Where it does, one request can cover a whole batch of open orders, and the number of requests you need stops growing with the number of orders you have running. Check the panel's API page for whether it is supported and how many IDs one request takes.

Spacing requests out matters more than most people expect, and concurrency tends to degrade before volume does: a loop that opens many requests at once can fail where the same requests sent one after another go through. A sensible loop runs on a timer rather than in a tight cycle, sends one request at a time, batches IDs where the panel allows it, backs off when an answer comes back as an error instead of retrying at once, and asks about long-running orders less often than fresh ones.

Faster polling, same delivery

Nothing moves faster because you asked. Asking more often changes only how soon you learn about a change someone upstream already reported, and on a reseller chain the answer is itself a copy of an older answer. An order that has stalled needs a ticket, not a shorter interval.
