Get an edge hostname

GET https://{{host}}/papi/v1/edgehostnames/:edgeHostnameId?contractId={{contractId}}&groupId={{groupId}}

This polls the state of an edge hostname, typically after creating a new edge hostname. The response tells you whether the CNAME has been fully distributed across the network. If the hostname's status is ACTIVE, the process is complete. Until then, you typically see values of ZONE1, ZONE2, ZONE3, or simply PENDING.
