Does the Backlog Feature Allow for Replay of Only Failed Steps in the Workflow?

This topic was automatically generated from Slack. You can find the original thread here.

Is there a feature in the backlog to replay failed steps only? (instead of replaying the entire workflow from scratch)

All I could find is a comment on this feature request.

As mentioned in the comment, that feature is already available in Zapier.

Would be nice to have the exact same thing in Zapier!

It shouldn’t create a new event, but rather re-run the existing event from the step where the workflow failed.

4

And then it should update the status of the event based on the latest re-run.

So if the re-run is successful, the failed event should be replaced by a successful event.

Effectively, we can already do this by hand when we do “Build From Event” (and then run the failed/skipped steps only). So all that’s needed is a way to automate that at the click of a button.

Hi , could you check this auto-retry errors feature if it helps?

: That’s exactly what we need, but triggered manually.

We’ve tried the auto-retry feature previously, but we ran into some issues that prevented us from using it.

I think the biggest issue is that it wasn’t sending $error events (but we do need those for every failure).

Hi , I’ve created an issue here to request a new feature to manually replay failed event: [FEATURE] Replay all failed steps in Inspect UI · Issue #8307 · PipedreamHQ/pipedream · GitHub

Hi , here’s another ticket to add the option to still send $error event when auto-retry feature is enabled: [FEATURE] Add option to still send `$error` event when user enable Auto-retry on the workflow · Issue #8308 · PipedreamHQ/pipedream · GitHub
