Failure handling strategy lets you decide what happens if your HTTP Request runs into a problem.

You’ve got a few options:

  • Stop flow – If something goes wrong, the workflow stops right here.

  • Skip – If this request fails, just move on and keep the workflow going.

  • Retry – Give it another shot! You can set how many times to retry and how long to wait between each try.

    • Max retry attempts:

      • Min: 1

      • Max: 3

    • Delay between retries (seconds):

      • Min: 1

      • Max: 5

If all retries fail, the flow will stop at this HTTP Request node.
