Description of problem: When call the ExportVmTemplateToOvaCommand class from UI it's given job ID and all subsequent operations are asynchronous(using ansible playbook). However, when ExportVmTemplateToOvaCommand class is called using REST-API, no job ID is given, and all subsequent operations are synchronous. So Rest-API and UI is doing different things. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ovirt-engine-4.3.7.2-0.1.el7.noarch ovirt-engine-restapi-4.3.7.2-0.1.el7.noarch How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Export template to OVA via REST API and via UI 2. no job ID is given in case of REST API 3. in case of UI job ID is given Actual results: UI{asynchronous} and REST API{synchronous} is doing different things Expected results: Both UI and REST API should work in the same way Additional info: ExportToPathOnHost as a REST-API in RHV-M even though its PollingType is "VDSM_TASKS", it works as "non-async". The code implementation confirms that the same method is used for all operations, except that `exportToPathOnHost` only functions synchronously.

As per the description, the UI and Rest API do not always work the same way. Is there a reason for not providing the Job ID with the REST API? It could make sense that it is not needed for REST API, but useful for the user via the UI.
Possibly an issue with how the status-polling is defined for this task, assigning to myself
Can you please explain where the job-id is given in the WebAdmin? When I do this export I don't see any job-id returned by the WebAdmin, perhaps I am looking at the wrong place?
