{
  "id": "ce93d237-4595-4508-8d81-f94365fc542c",
  "status": "running",
  "statusUrl": "https://async.scraperapi.com/jobs/ce93d237-4595-4508-8d81-f94365fc542c",
  "category": "3944_1089430_37807",
}

For multiple query requests:

[
  {
    "id": "ec4a6153-368c-440e-8c02-6c302a661db9",
    "status": "running",
    "statusUrl": "https://async.scraperapi.com/jobs/ec4a6153-368c-440e-8c02-6c302a661db9",
    "category": "3920"
  },
  {
    "id": "8a024945-f74a-4327-80e3-12f26c737ec6",
