# resume(withSuspensionID:)

Given a nonzero `suspensionID` returned by an invocation of [`suspendCurrentAppleEvent()`](/documentation/Foundation/NSAppleEventManager/suspendCurrentAppleEvent()), signal that handling of the suspended event may now continue.

```
func resume(withSuspensionID suspensionID: NSAppleEventManager.SuspensionID)
```

## Discussion

This may result in the immediate sending of the reply event to the sender of the suspended event, if the sender has requested a reply. If `suspensionID` has been used in a previous invocation of [`setCurrentAppleEventAndReplyEventWithSuspensionID(_:)`](/documentation/Foundation/NSAppleEventManager/setCurrentAppleEventAndReplyEventWithSuspensionID(_:)) the effects of that invocation are completely undone. Redundant invocations of [`resume(withSuspensionID:)`](/documentation/Foundation/NSAppleEventManager/resume(withSuspensionID:)) are ignored. Subsequent invocations of other `NSAppleEventManager` methods using the same suspension ID are invalid. [`resume(withSuspensionID:)`](/documentation/Foundation/NSAppleEventManager/resume(withSuspensionID:)) may be invoked in any thread, not just the one in which the corresponding invocation of [`suspendCurrentAppleEvent()`](/documentation/Foundation/NSAppleEventManager/suspendCurrentAppleEvent()) occurred.
