When to Retry

Retry Strategy

Use exponential backoff for transient errors (500, 503). Do not retry request errors (400, 401, 422) — fix the request first. Max retries: 3

Timeout Guidance

Fallback: Route to Manual Review

If the API is unresponsive after all retries, route the record to your manual review queue. Before retrying, call /health to confirm service availability.
