Retry Attempts

Maximum number of retry attempts for Azure Copy Activity.

The value is emitted as the Copy Activity's Retry property. When the setting is blank, 0 is used and the activity does not retry.

When to Change This Setting

Keep the default 0 so failures surface immediately. Set a small number of retries when copies fail intermittently for transient reasons, such as source throttling.
