Make webhook logs kept 3 days: recover a Sume result later

Make keeps webhook logs for 3 days (30 on Enterprise). A Sume result does not depend on them: store the job id, read job events, and redeliver the callback.

Once Make's webhook log is gone, the Sume job is not. Make's help page says it stores webhook logs for 3 days, or 30 days on Enterprise. A Sume job keeps its own record, so the way back is the stored job_id: read the job and its events, and if the callback never landed, call redeliver.

Make's retention is from its Webhooks help page; the Sume side is from Jobs and results and Webhooks, read 2026-10-01.

What should I store when the scenario submits?

Sume's docs say to store the job id from submit responses so your integration can recover work after process restarts. In Make, write it to a data store or a sheet row next to the request, not only to the scenario's execution history.

Where do I see what happened to the callback?

Job events are a public timeline for debugging and recovery, and they include webhook.delivery. The delivery status vocabulary is pending, delivering, delivered, retrying, failed, exhausted; the attempt count is visible on the job object and in job events when available.

Recovery paths once Make's 3-day log window has passed, read 2026-10-01.
QuestionWhere to look
Did the job finish?Job status via status_url
Was a callback attempted?webhook.delivery job events
Is the result still readable?result_url once result_ready is true
Need the callback again?POST /v1/jobs/{job_id}/webhook/redeliver

How do I get the callback again?

Redeliver re-POSTs the job's real terminal event (job.completed, job.failed or job.canceled) with a fresh timestamp and signature, and the docs say this still works after automatic attempts are exhausted. It needs the jobs:write scope and does not change the destination URL.

Do not use Send test for this: it posts a dummy webhook.test payload and never replays a real job.

curl -X POST https://api.sume.com/v1/jobs/job_123/webhook/redeliver \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SUME_API_KEY"

Will redelivery run my scenario twice?

It can, if the first delivery did arrive. Treat job_id as the idempotency key on the Make side. For more on failed deliveries see debug failed webhook deliveries.
