Retry a failed delivery

POST

/organizations/{organization_id}/webhooks/{webhook_id}/deliveries/{delivery_id}/retry.json

curl --request POST \
  --url https://secure.ethicsportal.eu/organizations/example/webhooks/example/deliveries/example/retry.json \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'

• EthicsPortal application

Retry a failed delivery with the webhook’s current URL and secret, keeping its event ID. Only failed deliveries can be retried. A personal token also needs its user to be a current administrator of the organisation.

Parameters

Path Parameters

string

Header Parameters

Idempotency-Key

string

>= 1 characters <= 255 characters /^[\x21-\x7e]+$/

Recommended on every POST. Retrying with the same key and the same request within 24 hours returns the first response (with Idempotent-Replayed: true) instead of acting twice. Only successful responses and validation errors are stored; any other outcome releases the key. Reusing a key with a different request returns 409 idempotency_key_reused; a retry while the first request is still running returns 409 idempotency_key_in_progress. Keys are scoped to the token.
