For a standard synchronous IFS API call, at what point is the result actually returned — immediately on invocation, or only once processing completes?

Answer

For a standard synchronous call (a projection action, REST API, or direct PL/SQL API), the response is only returned once processing has fully completed — the caller genuinely waits for the transaction to finish rather than receiving an immediate acknowledgment with the result following later; that kind of fire-and-forget pattern belongs to explicitly asynchronous mechanisms, not the standard synchronous call shape.

Documentation-based answer. Confirm the product and release before applying it. This answer has not been verified in an IFS environment.
