# Resume a repurpose

> Resume a paused repurpose. Only a paused row can be resumed.

Requires **manage repurposes** permission (Owner / Admin / Member). Viewers get `403`. Other-workspace IDs return `403`.

Conceptual guide: [Repurpose](/knowledge-base/repurposes).

Same health checks as [activate](/api-reference/endpoint/activate-repurpose): usable source, at least one usable destination, required meta present.

Watermark:

* User pause (`paused_reason` is `null`) — keeps `activated_at`, so videos posted during the pause are still picked up
* System pause (`source_removed`, `source_unavailable`, `no_destinations`) — stamps `activated_at` to now, so the outage backlog is not replayed

## Response

Same shape as [`GET /repurposes/{repurpose}`](/api-reference/endpoint/get-repurpose), with `status` `active` and `paused_reason` `null`.
