status

The status of the job.

Common values returned include "Running", "Completed", and "Failed". All possible values are:

NotStarted - This is a temporary state that client-side Run objects are in before cloud submission.
Starting - The Run has started being processed in the cloud. The caller has a run ID at this point.
Provisioning - On-demand compute is being created for a given job submission.
Preparing - The run environment is being prepared and is in one of two stages:
- Docker image build
- conda environment setup
Queued - The job is queued on the compute target. For example, in BatchAI, the job is in a queued state

while waiting for all the requested nodes to be ready.
Running - The job has started to run on the compute target.
Finalizing - User code execution has completed, and the run is in post-processing stages.
CancelRequested - Cancellation has been requested for the job.
Completed - The run has completed successfully. This includes both the user code execution and run

post-processing stages.
Failed - The run failed. Usually the Error property on a run will provide details as to why.
Canceled - Follows a cancellation request and indicates that the run is now successfully cancelled.
NotResponding - For runs that have Heartbeats enabled, no heartbeat has been recently sent.

Returns
