Connection Timeout (in ms)

This parameter defines the time (in milliseconds) after which a running request aborts. If set to null, the default timeout of the system is used.

Technical Name	timeout
Category	Technical
Type	Integer null
Default Value	null
Example Values	null, 10000

Initial Delay (in ms)

This parameter defines the initial time (in milliseconds) to wait before a failed request is reattempted.

Technical Name	initial_delay
Category	Technical
Type	Integer
Default Value	1000
Example Values	1000

Maximum Delay (in ms)

This parameter represents the maximum amount of time (in milliseconds) to wait before a failed HTTP request is reattempted. Set to null for unrestricted delay.

Technical Name	max_delay
Category	Technical
Type	Integer null
Default Value	3600000

Maximum Number of Attempts

This parameter represents the maximum number of attempts after which an HTTP request will fail permanently.

Technical Name	max_attempts
Category	Technical
Type	Integer
Default Value	5
Example Values	5

Failed requests will be resend by the connector before failing the whole connector run. When experiencing a lot of connectivity issues which are not related to server overload or some kind of rate limitation, it is recommended to increase this parameter as well as the Timeout and the Maximum Delay parameter.
