Most efficient way to get data from external API every 5 seconds?
What would be the most efficient way in Laravel to get data from an external API every ~5 seconds?

Basically we are using a cloud-based telephony system and they offer an API. Now we need to make an API call to know if there are calls in queue.
just an API call and we get the json data needed.

A lot of the spatie packages have been upgraded to require the latest versions of Laravel (7 or 8) and php 7.3+
If your project is older and in need of upgrade then you could try this other approach.
have multiple cronjobs that have sleep commands in them so that they fire at delayed intervals
