CosmosClientOptions.MaxRetryAttemptsOnRateLimitedRequests Property
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Gets or sets the maximum number of retries in the case where the request fails because the Azure Cosmos DB service has applied rate limiting on the client.
public int? MaxRetryAttemptsOnRateLimitedRequests { get; set; }member this.MaxRetryAttemptsOnRateLimitedRequests : Nullable<int> with get, setPublic Property MaxRetryAttemptsOnRateLimitedRequests As Nullable(Of Integer)Property Value
The default value is 9. This means in the case where the request is rate limited, the same request will be issued for a maximum of 10 times to the server before an error is returned to the application.
If the value of this property is set to 0, there will be no automatic retry on rate limiting requests from the client and the exception needs to be handled at the application level.
Remarks
When a client is sending requests faster than the allowed rate, the service will return HttpStatusCode 429 (Too Many Requests) to rate limit the client. The current implementation in the SDK will then wait for the amount of time the service tells it to wait and retry after the time has elapsed.
