Description

Open the browser and I call the endpoint /process_running_status.
It returns a { “process_status”: "ABC is NOT in running state\nchrome.exe is in running state\njava is in running state }` but takes sometime to respond
But when this is executing, my all other requests to the API are on hold till it gets completed. Am i doing this right way?
I want if this request /process_running_status is running, it should not hold the other request.
