# Resend the invitation email

POST https://api.withverifa.com/api/v1/sessions/{session_id}/resend-invite

Resend the verification invitation email for a `pending` or `capturing`
session. The session must have been originally created with
`send_email: true` so we have an applicant email on record.

The same display name, applicant name, and support URL stored on the
original invite are reused. Subject + body switch to "Complete your
verification" copy if the session is in `capturing` status.

Capped at 5 resends per session to prevent abuse.
