Hello
I have been exploring the Formlabs API to better manage print workflows, and one challenge I’m facing is how to automate tracking of print jobs across multiple printers.
Right now, I can manually check statuses through the dashboard, but for larger teams it would be useful to have an automated system that logs when a print starts, completes, or fails, and then sends updates to a shared workspace. 
This would save time and reduce errors from manual checking.
I was thinking about using the API to push job data into an external system, like a project management tool or even a simple database.
But I’m not sure what the best practice is should I be polling the API regularly, or is there a better way to set up event-based notifications?
Ideally, I’d like something that scales if more printers are added later on.
So, my question is: has anyone here tried integrating the Formlabs API with an external tracking or notification system? If yes, what tools or workflows worked best for you? Checked https://support.formlabs.com/s/article/Formlabs-API-developer-portal?language=en_US guide for reference.
While researching integrations, I stumbled on an article about what is marketing automation, and it struck me that managing print jobs has a lot in common with automating marketing tasks—both aim to reduce repetitive manual work and improve efficiency.
Any suggestions or examples would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you !!
