The retry option allows you to define how many times a Serverless Job automatically retries on failure. When the maximum number of failed retries is reached, the job is permanently marked as failed.
The retry option lets you define how many times a Serverless Job automatically retries on failure. A retry triggers when the job run reaches the `failed` [Status](/serverless-jobs/concepts/#status), the configured retry count is greater than zero, and the job run exits with a non-zero exit code. Once the job reaches the maximum number of failed retries, it is permanently marked as failed.

I don't get what is the added value for the user to go this deep in technical explanations ?
There is only one setting in the console, and it is named "Max retry attempts". So I would like to write the explanations around this and not the technical magic behind:

  • The user sets a maximum number of retry attempts.
  • A job run that does not succeed retries until the max retries number is reached.
