The operation runs again under the same id. The operation must be done and have failed points. An operation that was cut off with points that never got an outcome also qualifies. Those points are marked `FAILED` with the code `TIMEOUT` and sent again. Points that failed with `NOT_IN_PLAN` are not sent again. The operation goes back to `RUNNING`, and `metadata.retries` goes up by one. Poll it as you did after the apply. An operation you do not read stays `RUNNING` and blocks the next mass write in its buildings. > [!NOTE] > > The call returns `400` while the operation is not done, when no failed point can be sent again, or while another mass write is running in the same buildings. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi/kode-api.yaml post /api/v1/mass-write/operations/{operationId}:retry openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: KODE API version: 1.0.0 summary: Programmatic access to KODE OS resources and operations. description: > Use the KODE API to work with buildings, data sources, connectors, devices, points, virtual devices, timeseries data, schedules, the ontology, templating, mass writes, spaces, space assignments, tenants, meters, users, actions, and AssetOps work orders. license: name: Proprietary identifier: LicenseRef-Proprietary servers: - url: https://api.kodelabs.com/kodeos description: KODE API security: - bearerAuth: [] tags: - name: Authentication description: OAuth 2.0 discovery, token, and revocation endpoints. - name: Buildings description: Buildings and their areas. - name: Data sources description: Data sources connected to a building. - name: Devices description: Devices and their points. - name: Points description: Point queries and point writes. - name: Timeseries description: Current and historical point values. - name: Actions description: Actions exposed by building data sources. - name: Work orders description: AssetOps work orders, lookups, comments, and attachments. - name: Connectors description: KODE API connectors and the devices and points ingested through them. - name: Schedules description: Schedules discovered on building data sources. - name: Templating description: Apply ontology templates to groups of points. - name: Virtual devices description: Virtual devices that group points from other devices. - name: Ontology description: Canonical types, fields, units, and connections of the KODE ontology. - name: Users description: Users of the organization and their app access. - name: Mass write description: Write values to many points across buildings, and follow each run. - name: Spaces description: Levels and space units of a building, and the meters located in them. - name: Space assignments description: Assign tenants to leasable spaces of a building for a period. - name: Tenants description: Tenants of a building, the people or companies that lease its spaces. - name: Meters description: >- Meters of a building, their space assignments, parent and child links, and readings. paths: /api/v1/mass-write/operations/{operationId}:retry: post: tags: - Mass write summary: Retry a mass write operation description: >- Sends the failed points of an operation again.
