Configuring a retry policy for a workflow

When creating a new workflow or editing an existing one, in the management console, under Create workflow / Edit workflow, select Constructor.

In the workflow schema window, click any point free of schema elements to deselect all elements. Make sure you can see the Main settings section on the right side of the screen.

Under Main settings:

1. In the Errors field, select the errors for which the workflow steps will (will not) be retried.

   For detailed information about possible errors, see this section.

2. In the Error selection mode field, select:

   • INCLUDE: To retry executing workflow steps on errors specified in the Errors field.
   • EXCLUDE: To retry executing workflow steps on errors other than those specified in the Errors field.

3. Optionally, in the Maximum number of retries field, set the maximum number of step retry attempts.

4. Optionally, in the Initial delay, ms field, set the initial value for delay between retries.

5. Optionally, in the Backoff rate field, set the multiplication factor for delay before each retry.

6. Optionally, in the Maximum delay, ms field, set maximum delay between retries.

The general retry policy settings apply to all workflow steps that do not have their own retry policy settings.
