Specifying the Retry and Time Out parameters for Salesforce.com activities

Specifying the Retry and Time Out parameters is one of the tasks you must complete to configure a Salesforce.com activity. The Salesforce.com Connector uses an HTTP 1.1 persistent connection over SSL to make all connections to the Salesforce.com server. The Salesforce.com connector compresses all data for requests and responses using the gzip format.

About this task

The Salesforce.com connector uses a single login session for all connections to a Salesforce.com endpoint. If a session expires, the connector automatically establishes a new session. The Salesforce.com connector does not count the initial attempt to reacquire the session as a retry attempt. The Salesforce.com connector assumes the typical connector retry behavior after the initial attempt to reacquire a session fails.

For more information about the configuration tasks in the Checklist, see the help topic for the specific Salesforce.com activity.

Procedure

  1. In the Checklist, select Retry. The Retry panel open.
  2. Configure the retry options for connecting to a Salesforce.com instance.

    The following table describes the retry options for connecting to a Salesforce.com instance:

    Retry Fields Description
    Wait __ second(s) between each retry.

    Specifies the number of seconds that the Integration Appliance waits before trying to establish a connection to the Salesforce.com instance.

    By default, this parameter is set to 30 seconds.

    Try to connect __ times before failing.  

    Specifies the maximum number of times that the Integration Appliance attempts to establish a connection to the Salesforce.com instance before issuing an error and stopping the processing of the current orchestration job.

    By default this parameter is set to 5 attempts.

    Activity Timeout Field Description
    Time out after __ seconds when the Endpoint does not respond to a request.

    Specifies the number of seconds before a time out occurs between the activity making a request on an endpoint and the time it takes the endpoint to respond.

    By default this parameter is set to 300 seconds.
