Get status of Zilliqa transaction using command line interface and API: https://dev.zilliqa.com/docs/apis/api-transaction-get-transaction-status

GetTransactionStatus.sh

curl -d '{
    "id": "1",
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "GetTransactionStatus",
    "params": ["<YOUR_TRANSACTION_HASH_WITHOUT_LEADING_0x_CHARS_GOES_HERE>"]
}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST "https://api.zilliqa.com/" | python -m json.tool

How to use:

1. open your Terminal application, on Mac it is called ”Terminal” and is placed in the ”Utility” folder in the ”Applications” folder. On Windows you might wanna download Cygwin see more info here
2. Copy paste all the code in the “gist” above into your favorite text editor
3. Make your Zilliqa transaction, e.g. withdrawing your Zilliqa Staking Reward from Zillion, and make sure to copy the Transaction Hash shown in the pop up dialog
4. in your favorite text editor Paste the transaction hash into the <YOUR_TRANSACTION_HASH_WITHOUT_LEADING_0x_CHARS_GOES_HERE> , thus replacing it completely, so that you do not see any < or > but so that you see [“ before your transaction hash and ”] immediately after - with no space in between. 💡Important: make sure to remove any leading characters ”0x” from the transaction hash!
5. Copy paste the whole command into the Terminal app and hit “enter”
6. Hit the up arrow key and enter every 5 second or so to repeat the command and watch how the “status” changes value from 1 to 3 (and 2 in between?)

If you are curious about what the status numbers mean, here is the code mapping it to a status message, a code update part of the Pull Request #269 merged on 2020-12-15 (not a coder? A 'Pull Request' is like "an update of code with a 'report'").
