# resumeRequest(_:)

Resumes an assistance request, in response to a call from the framework.

```
@MainActor func resumeRequest(_ request: LiveAssistanceRequest) async throws -> LiveAssistanceRequest.Response
```

## Discussion

The framework calls this method on your extension after your container app performs any required setup — such as completing a sign in — and calls [`returnToCall(requestID:)`](/documentation/LiveCommunicationKit/LiveAssistance/returnToCall(requestID:)).

In your implementation, do the following:

- Re-perform any needed setup and eligibility checks.
- Forward `request.url` to your backend.
- Return [`LiveAssistanceRequest.Response.proceed`](/documentation/LiveCommunicationKit/LiveAssistanceRequest/Response/proceed). If the request can’t proceed, throw [`LiveAssistanceRequestError`](/documentation/LiveCommunicationKit/LiveAssistanceRequestError) instead to end the request.

The framework only calls this method if you handled the original call to [`prepareAssistanceRequest(_:)`](/documentation/LiveCommunicationKit/LiveAssistanceExtension/prepareAssistanceRequest(_:)) by returning [`LiveAssistanceRequest.Response.requiresUserInput(reason:)`](/documentation/LiveCommunicationKit/LiveAssistanceRequest/Response/requiresUserInput(reason:)). It doesn’t call this method if you originally returned [`LiveAssistanceRequest.Response.proceed`](/documentation/LiveCommunicationKit/LiveAssistanceRequest/Response/proceed).
