Activate bridge

POST/bridges/{id}/activate●Retry failed or pending event deliveries for a bridge.

Kept for backward compatibility. Use POST /bridges/{id}/events/retry instead, which is the preferred endpoint going forward.

Retries bridge event deliveries that have failed or are still scheduled but not delivered.

For each affected event to be delivered, any existing scheduled jobs are cancelled and a new delivery is queued with the retry backoff reset to its initial value. Use the maxAge parameter to limit retries to events whose last delivery attempt was created within the past N minutes (default: 60, max: 48 hours enforced server-side). Set maxAge to 0 to retry all events for the bridge regardless of age.

Required access action: activate

Add bridge proof POST

Appends a signed proof to the record. The proof must be signed against the record's current hash. Use proofs to change status, update labels, or record custom data — see [About Proofs](/ledger/structuring-data/about-proofs) for details. Returns the updated record with the new proof in `meta.proofs`. Broadcasts the `bridge-proofs-added` signal. Use [effects](/ledger/reference/api/effect) to subscribe.

Retry bridge events POST

Retries bridge event deliveries that have failed or are still scheduled but not delivered. For each affected event to be delivered, any existing scheduled jobs are cancelled and a new delivery is queued with the retry backoff reset to its initial value. Use the `maxAge` parameter to limit retries to events whose last delivery attempt was created within the past N minutes (default: 60, max: 48 hours enforced server-side). Set `maxAge` to 0 to retry all events for the bridge regardless of age. **Required access action:** `retry-event`
