Custom retry strategy

Customize the number of retries and buffer between attempts to retrieve data on connection and job level.

This feature is only available on the PRO and Enterprise plans

How it works?

Retries are the number of attempts our platform will do in order to try to extract the data once it receives an error response. If you set 5 retries, Erathos will make 5 attempts to retrieve data before showing you an error message and sending an alert.

Besides the number of retries, you can also customize the backoff multiplier which dictates the buffer time between each attempt and how it varies over time.

You can define a custom retry strategy at Connection level, applying to all jobs, or at job level. Be aware that the job retry strategy will overwrite the connection customization for that specific job.
