Filing idempotency/safe retry

felipe 2021-10-12 16:04:22 UTC #1

Greetings,

We are currently looking to make our filing process more robust, retrying some of the requests in case of transmission failure (for example, a network error).

For this, we would like to ask if a filing can be submitted again immediately safely (Submitting the same document with all the parameters from the previous attempt), or should we use another endpoint to check the filing status.

Best regards,
Felipe.

Hello Felipe,

You should never re-submit a filing, as this will create duplication related rejections, and in the worse case scenario, duplication of filings on the public record.

The only way to check the status is via the polling processes.

I hope this clarifies.
