Retries

Retries happen when a webhook isn’t successfully delivered on the first attempt. In Hooklistener, retries refer to the additional attempts a Connection makes to send a webhook to a destination after a failure.

Retries are managed per destination. If a single source sends webhooks to multiple destinations, each destination handles its own retry logic independently.

By default, Hooklistener will retry up to 15 times using an exponential backoff strategy. This schedule adapts based on the number of retries you configure. You can adjust the retry limit by clicking the settings icon in your connection panel.

You can also manually retry failed webhooks. Just go to the Outgoing tab in your Event History, select the failed event, and click Retry in the top-right corner.
