# phishing.simulation.failed

`POST phishing.simulation.failed` (webhook)

A user failed an Adaptive phishing simulation by performing the simulation's attack-vector action, such as clicking the link or entering credentials. Fires once per user per campaign; repeat interactions with the same simulation do not produce additional events.

**Subscription filters**

- `campaign` — filter to specific campaign ids

## Acknowledgement `2XX`

Return any 2xx status to acknowledge the delivery. Timeouts, 408, 429, and 5xx responses other than 501 are retried; any other status is a permanent failure.
