Task Parameters

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

 

When a request fails, the connector does a so-called exponential backoff. The delay starts with this duration and then exponentially increases with every failed attempt.

 

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

Example Values

3600000

 

When a request fails, the connector does a so-called exponential backoff. The delay increases with every failed attempt up to this duration. In order to limit the total runtime of the connector, one can set a maximum delay.

 

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.
