# Challenge a parked inbound REGISTER with a 401 digest auth request

`POST /sip/registrations/attempts/{id}/challenge`

Targets an inbound REGISTER surfaced via the `sip.registration_attempt` event (by its `attempt_id`). Sends a SIP 401 with a `WWW-Authenticate` digest challenge; the UA's credentialed re-REGISTER is verified against the supplied credential and, on success, bound and answered with 200 OK. Provide either `password` or `ha1`. The attempt must still be parked (it auto-accepts after the consult timeout).

## Request body

  - `realm` string, required
  - `username` string
  - `password` string
