Retry Configuration

The AWS Secretes Manager credential provider comes with the following default retry mechanism:

  1. No. of retries: Defines the number of retries when encountered with an error like timeout. The default value is 2.

  2. Base Delay (Milliseconds) : Defines the interval after which a retry attempt must be made. The base delay exponentially increases after every retry attempt. For example, if the default base delay is 10 seconds, subsequent retry attempts will be 20 seconds, then 40 seconds, and so on. The default value is 500 ms.

  3. Throttled Base Delay (Milliseconds) : Defines the interval to wait before retrying after the first retry attempt. This value automatically increases exponentially with each failed attempt. The default value is 1000 ms.

  4. Maximum Backoff Time (Milliseconds): After the delay reaches this maximum limit, the time between retries will stop increasing. The default is 2000 ms.

If you need to override this configuration, then add the attributes you need to the application XML using the SailPoint REST APIs.
