# Retry Session Verification

`POST /api/v1/sessions/{session_id}/verifications/{policy}/retry`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.withverifa.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.withverifa.com/api/v1/sessions/{session_id}/verifications/{policy}/retry`
- Auth: none declared

Retry a specific errored verification check for a session.

Only checks in a non-completed state can be retried: ``error``,
``requires_retry``, or ``pending``. A check that ran successfully
(``passed``) or produced a valid negative result (``failed``) cannot
be retried — retrying would bill again with no change to the outcome,
since the provider has already been called with the same input.

If you want to re-verify the same person with fresh data, create a
new session. Sessions in terminal states (``completed``, ``rejected``)
cannot be retried at all.

The retry runs asynchronously; poll the session/verifications endpoint
for results. Returns 202 Accepted immediately.

## Path parameters

- `session_id` string, required
- `policy` string, required

## Response `202`

Successful Response

- unknown

## Other responses

- `422`: Validation Error
