# Resume Connector

> Put a paused connector back on its sync schedule.

Puts a paused connector back on its schedule and makes it due for a sync right away. Each resource continues from its saved sync position, so changes made in the source app during the pause are picked up on that sync.

<RequestExample>
  ```bash cURL theme={"dark"}
  curl -X POST 'https://api.hydradb.com/connectors/{id}/resume' \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $HYDRA_DB_API_KEY" \
    -H "API-Version: 2"
  ```
</RequestExample>

<ResponseExample>
  ```json 200 theme={"dark"}
  {
    "connector_id": "{connector_id}",
    "paused": false
  }
  ```
</ResponseExample>

## Errors

* `404`: no connector with this id in your workspace.
* `409`: the connector is not paused.
