# Resend an invitation email

`POST /api/invitations/{invitation_id}/resend`

Resends an invitation. Only works for pending invitations belonging to the
user's company.

Two shapes, decided by the Cognito account status:

* `FORCE_CHANGE_PASSWORD` — an ordinary invitee who never signed in. Cognito
  re-sends the temporary password, as before.
* `CONFIRMED` — someone who already has a StandGest login (a self-signup
  account invited to join the company). `admin_resend_invitation` raises
  `UnsupportedUserStateException` for these, which used to make "Reenviar" a
  button that could never work; they get the branded tokenized link instead.

**The expiry is pushed out too.** Nothing in this codebase ever writes
`status='expired'` — the row just sits `'pending'` with a past `expires_at` —
so re-sending a lapsed invitation used to hand out a working password and a
token `claim_invitation` still refuses, with no way out of the loop.
