Questions about this workflow
Does this action start an upload?
No. Get Asset Upload From URL Status checks an upload already initiated via URL using its status id.
Where does the status id come from?
It is returned when Upload Asset From URL starts an upload. Make sure that id is available to the automation.
Can this guarantee an import completes?
It checks the reported status. It does not itself complete or retry an upload.
