Project

A Project is a group of related Connections, Flows/Components, Profiles, Vaults, Automations and other code/configuration artifacts. Project files define the mapping of filesystem paths to different kinds of artifacts that the platform can access when running Flows for the Project.

RetryStrategy

Retry strategy configuration for Component operations. This configuration leverages the tenacity library to implement robust retry mechanisms. The configuration options directly map to tenacity's retry parameters. Details on the tenacity library can be found here: https://tenacity.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#retry-main-api Current implementation includes: - stop_after_attempt: Maximum number of retry attempts - stop_after_delay: Give up on retries one attempt before you would exceed the delay. Will need to supply at least one of the two parameters. Additional retry parameters will be added as needed to support more complex use cases.

Property	Default	Type	Required	Description
stop_after_attempt		integer	No	Number of retry attempts before giving up. If set to None, it will not stop after any number of attempts.
stop_after_delay		integer	No	Maximum time (in seconds) to spend on retries before giving up. If set to None, it will not stop after any time delay.
