Resume

POST

https://api.paybeta.ng/v2/scheduled-payments/{{scheduleReference}}/resume

Resume a paused schedule. Recurring schedules continue at the next future cycle — cycles missed while paused are skipped, never charged. For a one-time schedule whose date passed while paused (resume_needs_start_at: true), send a new start_at.
