Cinchy v5.6 introduced the Retry Configuration for MongoDB targets. This will automatically retry HTTP Requests on failure based on timeout or connection errors. If the final retry attempt fails it gets logged into the Execution Errors table
This capability provides a mechanism to recover from transient errors such as network disruptions or temporary service outages.
Note: the maximum number of retries is capped at 10.
To set up a retry configuration:
Under the MongoDB destination tab, select Retry Configuration
2. Select your Delay Strategy.
Linear Backoff: Defines a delay of approximately n seconds where n = current retry attempt.
Exponential Backoff: A strategy where every new retry attempt is delayed exponentially by 2^n seconds, where n = current retry attempt.
Example: you defined Max Attempts = 3. Your first retry is going to be in 2^1 = 2, second: 2^2 = 4, third: 2^3 = 8 sec.
3. Input your Max Attempts. The maximum number of retries allowed is 10.
