Hello,
Is there a way to re-run the automation if failed after certain period of time (15-30 minutes).
Thanks,
Hello,
Yes, this is possible but not from the failed automation itself. You need to set up an additional automation that is configured to run on a schedule to monitor the automation you want re-run if it should fail.
You must also decide if the re-run should 1) retry the failed automation run using the same, if any, input, or 2) initiate an entirely new run of the automation. The solution would depend on what you want to achieve.
Retry Automation Run
Use the block “Retry Automation Run” to retry a specific run of the automation using the same, if any, inputs. This approach would be applicable if the automation that fails has the run mode set to Webhooks or Triggered. It is also possible to manually re-run these runs using the “retry” button in the automations run history.
Run Automation
Use the block “Run Automation” to initiate a new run of the automation. This approach would be applicable if the automation that fails has the run mode set to Scheduled and the inputs of the failed run wouldn’t be unique.
Re-run example
This is an example of how you can retry an automation run that has failed. The “Run Automation” block could be used instead of the “Retry Automation Run” block depending on the approach you want to implement.
This is an overview of what the example automation looks like:
