Order status is automatically kept in sync via WebSocket connections. In most cases, you don’t need to do anything—your orders will update within seconds of changes on Polymarket.

​
When to Manually Sync

Manual syncing is useful when:
  • After network interruptions — status updates may have been missed
  • Orders seem stuck — an order stays PENDING longer than expected
  • Before critical decisions — ensure you have the latest state before acting
# Sync all orders
result = client.sync_orders()
print(f"Synced {result['synced']} of {result['total']} orders")

# Sync a specific order
result = client.sync_orders(order_id="ord_abc123")

​
What Gets Synced
