Retry a failed settlement run

Pays again the failed part of a completed run whose outcome is failed_partial or failed_all, using your current settlement policy. The original run is kept. Anything else is 409 resettlement_not_allowed, and a run retried before is 409 settlement_already_retried. Send a required Idempotency-Key header. Requires the settlements.write permission.

POST/v1/settlements/{id}/resettlements
Authorization

Header parameters

403

The request was understood and refused. Common causes: the token is not an API credential's (forbidden); the credential is for the other environment (environment_mismatch); it does not have the permission this operation needs (forbidden); a limit was reached (limits_missing, limits_unusable, tier_ineligible, transaction_limit_exceeded, daily_limit_exceeded, monthly_limit_exceeded); or iSmartPay has suspended or deactivated the business (business_suspended, business_deactivated). A suspended business's API credentials stop exchanging for tokens, so a request made with a token issued just before the suspension is refused with business_suspended.

Nothing was found with that reference or number. For utilities, product_not_found means no product has that productId.

idempotency_key_reused: the key was used before with a different body. request_in_flight: a request with this key is still being processed, so retry shortly. duplicate_reference: the reference is already used by a different request, so choose a new one; sending the same body again under a new key replays the first answer.

Something failed on our side. The message is fixed. If the request was a POST, retry with the same Idempotency-Key and body.

A service behind the API did not answer usably. If the request was a POST, retry with the same Idempotency-Key and body. A party lookup the provider rejects is provider_error.

The API is temporarily unable to tell which environment it serves (environment_unknown), utility purchases are not available right now (utilities_unavailable), a settlement destination could not be name-checked just now (destination_verification_unavailable; retry the same request), or hosted checkout is not set up on this deployment (checkout_unavailable). Retry shortly, except for checkout_unavailable, which lasts until the deployment is configured.

The request took too long. If it was a POST, its outcome is unknown: retry with the same Idempotency-Key and body, or read it back by reference. A party lookup the provider does not answer is provider_timeout: check again before relying on it.
