Certbot service is marked as dead - how do I resurrect it?

In Debian 12, I find the certbot service to be dead:

$ systemctl list-units --type=service --all | grep certbot
  certbot.service    loaded    inactive dead    Certbot

I am not sure why the service crashed, but more importantly, how I can resurrect it again?

It's not supposed to be alive. It's a oneshot kind of service. It gets started by a timer, does its thing (checks for renewals, and renews if necessary), then dies.
