Rerun a previous run: either all tests again or only the tests that failed (or were skipped/errored). Useful for flaky test verification or re-running failed tests after a fix.
- Endpoint:
POST /run/{shortId}
- Authentication: Bearer token required

Path Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|
shortId | string | Yes | The run’s short ID (from Start Run response: run.shortId) |
Request Body
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|
failedOnly | boolean | No | If true, rerun only failed/skipped/error test cases. |
projectTestCaseIds | array of strings (UUIDs) | No | Rerun only these test cases (by project test case ID). |
You must provide either failedOnly or projectTestCaseIds, but not
both. Sending both returns 400 Bad Request.
