The Restart action allows you to re-execute a failed workflow run from the beginning. All previous step results are discarded, and the workflow executes from scratch using the original configuration and initial payload. This approach is ideal when:
  • Previous step results are no longer relevant.
  • The failure was caused by corrupted or inconsistent state.
  • You need a completely fresh execution with updated or clean data.

Restart a workflow run from DLQ

You can perform this action programmatically as well:
import { Client } from "@upstash/workflow";

const client = new Client({ token: "<WORKFLOW_TOKEN>" });

await client.dlq.restart({
  dlqId: "dlq-12345",
  retries: 3,
});
