Retries & Replay

Repull automatically retries failed webhook deliveries with exponential backoff. You can also manually replay any delivery from the last 7 days.

Retry Schedule

When a delivery fails, Repull retries up to 5 times on the following schedule:

What Triggers a Retry

A delivery is considered failed and will be retried if:

• Your endpoint returns a non-2xx status code (e.g. 500, 502, 503)
• Your endpoint does not respond within 10 seconds (request timeout)
• The connection is refused or the DNS lookup fails

Auto-Disable

After 20 consecutive failed deliveries (across any events), the webhook subscription is automatically disabled. You will receive an email notification when this happens. Re-enable it from the dashboard or via the API after fixing the issue.

Viewing Failed Deliveries

List recent deliveries for a webhook subscription, including status, response code, and timestamps:

curl https://api.repull.dev/v1/webhooks/wh_abc123/deliveries?status=failed \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_YOUR_KEY"

Manual Replay

Re-deliver any webhook from the last 7 days. The replayed delivery carries the exact same payload — and the same stable eventId — as the original. The path nests the delivery under the subscription it belongs to:

curl -X POST https://api.repull.dev/v1/webhooks/wh_abc123/deliveries/del_xyz789/replay \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_YOUR_KEY"
