Retry strategies for tasks

Last updated: March 30, 2026

Ondorse tasks are designed to limit manual intervention where possible. For this reason our tasks will automatically retry if they fail to secure a response from an external provider.

The retry strategy uses a simple logic of multiplying by 2 the waiting time until we reach 2 hours.

1

60 × 2⁰ = 60s (1 min)

2

60 × 2¹ = 120s (2 min)

3

60 × 2² = 240s (4 min)

4

60 × 2³ = 480s (8 min)

5

60 × 2⁴ = 960s (16 min)

6

60 × 2⁵ = 1920s (32 min)

7

60 × 2⁶ = 3840s (64 min)

8

60 × 2⁷ = 7680s → capped to 7200s (2 hrs)

Total retry window: ~4.5 hours

Manual retry

When a task failed and is awaiting retry you will see a message indicating that the task may be retried. You can force a retry by clicking on the run again button.
