Wan (Alibaba Cloud): job signals
What Wan (Alibaba Cloud) documents about how a finished job is signalled, by webhook or polling: a task ID polled for the result, valid for 24 hours. From 1 source page, read 2026-09-25; no maker pays to be listed.
Do not create duplicate tasks . Instead, use polling to retrieve the result.

1Tools with the same reading
Adobe Firefly, D-ID, Google Veo, LTX, MiniMax and Runway also document “a status polled until done”, which makes 7 tools with this reading.
Developer documentation changes often; the live page has the final say.
2Why it matters in a pipeline
Video jobs take minutes, so the signal decides how a pipeline waits. A webhook calls back when the file is ready; polling asks again and again, which is simpler to set up and wasteful at volume.
