I am designing API's and using azure API management. My system is hitting external API's to get response.
My requirement is :
Please let me know should i use APIM Or Event grid for this retry operation?
An Azure service that provides a hybrid, multi-cloud management platform for APIs.
An Azure event routing service designed for high availability, consistent performance, and dynamic scale.
Please correct me if my understanding is wrong, you are already using APIM and want to retry the backend API call. In this case, I will suggest you to leverage the retry advance policy as you are already using the APIM.
Event Grid allows you to easily build applications with event-based architectures where you work with events (notification of a condition or a state change)
@MayankBargali-MSFT There are about 6 conditions which we can use in APIM retry.
Our project requirement is to retry for 2 days, if it fails again then come out of retry loop.
Can you please let me know how can i set the retry time period(~2 days Or 48 hours) in apim.
<retry
condition="boolean expression or literal"
count="number of retry attempts"
interval="retry interval in seconds"
max-interval="maximum retry interval in seconds"
delta="retry interval delta in seconds"
first-fast-retry="boolean expression or literal">
<!-- One or more child policies. No restrictions -->
</retry>
@DevBuster007 Can you confirm your workflow: custom service/application calling the APIM service that you have created and APIM is calling your backend service. Now the retry that you are talking about is between your APIM to the backend service or the custom service/application to the APIM?
