# Retry a failed transcript

Re-queues processing. Status may be 204, 202, or 200 depending on current state.

`POST /api/v1/transcripts/{id}/retry`

OpenAPI operation `retryTranscript`. Authenticate with a Clerk session JWT (`Authorization: Bearer {jwt}`) or the `verbafy_guest_session` cookie. `{jwt}` is a Clerk session token after you sign in on the website. Verbafy does not issue that token and does not show it in Settings. For scripts and agents, sign in, create an API key at [Settings → API keys](/app/settings/api-keys), and call Remote MCP with `Authorization: Bearer sk-…`. Credential setup: [Auth.md](/auth.md). Machine-readable contract: [OpenAPI](/openapi.json).

## curl

```curl
curl -X POST 'https://verbafy.io/api/v1/transcripts/{id}/retry' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer {jwt}'
```

## JavaScript

```javascript
const response = await fetch('https://verbafy.io/api/v1/transcripts/{id}/retry', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    Authorization: 'Bearer {jwt}',
  }
});
```

## Python

```python
import httpx

response = httpx.post(
    "https://verbafy.io/api/v1/transcripts/{id}/retry",
    headers={"Authorization":"Bearer {jwt}"},
)
```
