# The delivery object

One attempt-tracked delivery of an event to one endpoint: its status, how many attempts it took, what your server answered, and when it will be retried.

Deliveries are kept for 30 days. [List deliveries](/api-reference/webhooks/list-deliveries) leaves the `payload` out; [Get a delivery](/api-reference/webhooks/get-delivery) includes it.

## Attributes

- `uid` (string): The delivery's id, also sent as `X-Sigil-Delivery`. A retry repeats it.
- `event_id` (string): The event's id, the body's `id`: the same for this event's delivery to each of your endpoints.
- `type` (string): The [event type](/webhooks#events). One of: `pact.sent`, `pact.viewed`, `pact.signed`, `pact.declined`, `pact.voided`, `pact.sealed`, `pact.lapsed`, `ping`.
- `pact_uid` (string | null): The pact the event is about. `null` for a `ping`.
- `status` (string): `pending` is queued or waiting for its next attempt; `sent` got a `2xx`; `failed` was given up on. One of: `pending`, `sent`, `failed`.
- `attempts` (integer): Attempts made so far (7 at most).
- `last_code` (integer | null): The HTTP status of the last attempt, or `null` when it got no response.
- `last_error` (string | null): Why the last attempt did not count as delivered: the status and the start of your response body, a timeout, or a connection error.
- `next_attempt` (string (date-time) | null): When it will next be tried, while `pending`.
- `date_created` (string (date-time)): When the event was queued.
- `date_sent` (string (date-time) | null): When it was delivered.
- `payload` (object): The [event body](/api-reference/objects/webhook-event) exactly as it was posted. Only from [Get a delivery](/api-reference/webhooks/get-delivery).
