# Rerun a failed job

Run a failed / expired job again as a new job (`replay_of` = the old one, which stays as it was). Not for jobs whose outcome is unknown (reconcile those), message sends (use messages.retry), logins, or campaign / nurture work (they retry themselves). A job that changes something on Telegram needs acknowledgeDuplicateRisk: true. The new job passes today's permissions, gate, quota and do-not-contact checks. Calling it again for the same job returns the same new job.
