Automaticly retrigger failed requests

[ffhjansen]

Wondering if there is way to automaticly "re-trigger" a request if it has failed because Sonarr wasn't available.

In my use case i have JS installed on my homeassisant server and my Sonarr and download instantances are on a pc which isn't available 24/7. I am searching for a way to re-trigger the failed requests remotely/automaticly when the pc is online again instead of doing it manually.

Is this possible?

The "better way" would be that JS would check if the services are available and if not cache/postpone the requests and send them when they are once available again. But that's just a thought.

Hope some one can answer my question. Keep up the great work!

You could have a script that periodically retrieves failed requests using jellyseerr api key and retries them

@fallenbagel feeling stupid that i didn't read about the api! But that's the way to go than. It seems the api is described pretty good so i hope this newby/non programmer gets it to work.

Thanks for you quick answer!

@ffhjansen btw you can also access the api on your own instance:
http://localhost:5055/api-docs where http://localhost:5055 represents your jellyseerr instance ;)

Thanks again.
But i am kind of struggling to make it work with no programming skills.
So till i figure this out i'll press the "retry' button.

Have a nice day
