Terminal not alloted, yet

[gka]

After creating a worker via POST /workers and then trying to create a screenshot I sometimes get

{"message":"Not Found","errors":[{"field":"id","code":"Terminal not alloted yet, cannot process screenshot at the moment"}]}

Didn't find anything about this error mentioned in the documentation.

Hi @gka , can you check the worker status? It might be before it transitioned from being in 'queue' to in 'running' state. You can find the status by checking the details here.

so essentially, after creating a worker I need to poll the worker status until it changes to running?

just a side question: How long does this typically take? I tried to solve this with a 30 second delay between worker creation and the screenshot but it didn't help.
