Handling failures or misfires

Use the Failure Strategy tab to make selections for how an action behaves when it does not complete successfully.

For a failed you can, specify for the action to automatically retry for a specified number of attempts. To use this option, use the Number of Retries field to specify how many times the action should be attempted before it is reported as failed.

A misfire is when a background action fails to run on time. Options for handling a misfire are:

  • Specify a threshold, number of minutes, that an action can be delayed before it is reported as failed. In the Threshold field, specify the number of minutes. Options are:
  • Specify a strategy. Options are:
    • Do Nothing: The request will be ignored.
    • Run Once: Only one of the missed events, there may be several if scheduled, will be run.
    • Run All Processes Scheduled: All of the missed events, there may be several if scheduled, will be run.
  • Specify Report Options: Valid entries are:
    • No Report
    • Report All Processes. The reports created are AsyncActionMisfire records.

When you have finished configuring options on the Failure Strategy tab, select Ok.
