Runs and retries

Read the run timeline

The timeline shows inputs, step attempts, durations, and outputs in execution order. Secret values are redacted before storage. Select a failed attempt to see its error class and retry decision.

Retry a step

Automatic retries are intended for temporary failures. Configure the maximum attempts and delay on a step:

await step('send-report', sendReport, {
  retry: { attempts: 3, backoff: 'exponential', maxDelay: '30s' },
});

Resume a failed run

Manual resume starts at the failed step and reuses completed step results. Before resuming, confirm that the external operation is idempotent or verify its provider-side state.

Cancel a run

Cancellation prevents new steps from starting. An in-flight network request may still complete, so cancellation is not a rollback mechanism.
