# Start or resume a campaign

`POST /campaign/{id}/start`

Queues the campaign for processing and returns immediately — the campaign is **not** yet
running when the 202 is returned. Poll `GET /campaign/{id}` and watch for `status: "running"`.

This endpoint also acts as a **resume** endpoint: if the campaign is currently paused,
calling this endpoint resumes it (`status` transitions from `paused` → `running`).

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Response `202`

Campaign queued for processing

- object
  - `status` boolean
  - `data` object
    - `message` string
    - `taskId` string — Internal task identifier for the queued job
    - `campaignId` string — The ID of the campaign

## Other responses

- `400` — Invalid input
- `401` — Unauthorized access
- `404` — Campaign not found
- `500` — Internal server error
