# Send a delivery again

`POST https://api-vod-express.syncwords.com/v1/webhooks/{id}/deliveries/{eventId}/retry`

Send a delivery again

Queues the delivery to be sent again now, with its attempts reset and a fresh 24 hours of retries, whatever its state: a `failed` one after your server is fixed, or a `delivered` one your server lost. It goes with the same `webhook-id`, so a server that already handled it can drop it.

**Guide:** [Webhooks](/vod-express/guides/webhooks)

## Parameters

| Name | In | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `id` | path | string | yes | The webhook’s `id`: `wh_…`. |
| `eventId` | path | string | yes | The delivery’s `eventId`: `evt_…`. |

Queued

Example:

```json
{
  "data": {
    "eventId": "evt_01m3n2x5f1h2d9k7c3b8a6w4q0",
    "type": "file.done",
    "status": "pending",
    "attempts": 0,
    "lastStatus": 200,
    "lastError": null,
    "lastAttemptAt": "2026-09-28T10:00:35.120Z",
    "nextAttemptAt": "2026-09-28T12:00:00.000Z",
    "deliveredAt": null,
    "createdAt": "2026-09-28T10:00:04.310Z"
  }
}
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "required": [
    "data"
  ],
  "properties": {
    "data": {
      "$ref": "#/components/schemas/WebhookDelivery"
    }
  }
}
```

### 401

No token, or an expired or unknown one: `unauthenticated`.

Example:

```json
{
  "message": "Unauthenticated.",
  "code": "unauthenticated"
}
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "$ref": "#/components/schemas/Error"
}
```

### 403

VOD Express is not available to the account: switched off for it (`vod_express_not_enabled`), or the account is restricted — its access revoked, its trial expired or used up (`account_restricted`, with the reason in `message`).

Example:

```json
{
  "message": [
    "VOD Express is not enabled for your account."
  ],
  "code": "vod_express_not_enabled"
}
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "$ref": "#/components/schemas/Error"
}
```

### 404

No such webhook in your account (`webhook_not_found`), or it has no delivery of that event (`webhook_delivery_not_found`): deliveries are kept 7 days.

Example:

```json
{
  "message": "Delivery not found.",
  "code": "webhook_delivery_not_found"
}
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "$ref": "#/components/schemas/Error"
}
```

### 429

Rate limited: `too_many_requests`. Wait the seconds `Retry-After` says, then repeat the call.

Example:

```json
{
  "message": [
    "Too Many Attempts."
  ],
  "code": "too_many_requests"
}
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "$ref": "#/components/schemas/Error"
}
```
