# Resume a paused sandbox

`POST /sandboxes/{id}/resume`

Starts a fresh container of the same template and reattaches the persistent
volume. Files under the sandbox's workspace directory come back; nothing else
does.

Sandbox must be in status `paused`. `status` transitions from `paused` to
`ready` once the container is up.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Response `200`

Resume queued

- AckMessage
  - `message` string, required

## Other responses

- `400` — Validation error / invalid state transition
- `404` — Sandbox or related resource not found (also returned when owned by another user)
