Alphabetic Connector List > QuickBooks TSheets > Connector Parameters

Connection Timeout (in ms)

This parameter specifies the time after which a running request will be aborted. If set to null, the default timeout of the system will be used.

Technical Name	timeout
Category	Technical
Type	Integer null
Default Value	null
Example Values	null, 100000

Initial Delay (in ms)

This parameter represents the initial time (in milliseconds) to wait before a failed request will be 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 time (in milliseconds) to wait before an HTTP request that has been failed will be reattempted. If set to null, the delay will not be restricted.

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, on 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.
