subscription.resumed

Fired when POST /v1/subscriptions/{id}/resume resumes a paused subscription.

When it fires

QuotaStack sends this when you start a paused subscription again. The same call also brings back one that was trialing, overdue, or contract-ended.

When it does not fire

QuotaStack does not send this for a subscription that expired or was canceled. Make a new one instead.

Which calls fire this

Delivery

QuotaStack guarantees at-least-once delivery. An event may be delivered more than once if your endpoint returns a non-2xx response, the connection fails, or the request exceeds the delivery timeout.

Delivery timeout: 5 seconds per attempt. If your endpoint does not return a 2xx within 5 seconds, the attempt is treated as a failure and retried. Not configurable today.

One webhook URL per tenant. Multiple URLs and per-event routing are not supported. Configure the URL via the tenant config endpoint.

Retry schedule

If delivery fails (non-2xx response, timeout, or network error), QuotaStack retries with exponential backoff:

AttemptDelay after previous
1Immediate
230 seconds
35 minutes
430 minutes
52 hours
68 hours
724 hours

After 7 failed attempts, the event is moved to a dead letter queue. Dead-lettered events are not lost — you can requeue them yourself, from the dashboard (Activity → Webhooks → Redeliver) or the API:

curl -X POST https://api.quotastack.io/v1/webhooks/events/{event_id}/redeliver \
  -H "X-API-Key: $QS_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: redeliver:{event_id}"

Redelivery resets the event to pending with a fresh retry schedule (7 new attempts). The next attempt signs with your current secret — useful when the event dead-lettered because of a secret rotation or an endpoint outage you have since fixed. Only dead_letter events can be redelivered; the call returns 409 for events in any other status.

Handling duplicates

Because delivery is at-least-once, your webhook handler should be idempotent. Use the webhook-id header for deduplication — if you have already processed an event with that ID, return 200 and skip processing.
