Common Failure Types

Temporary (Auto-Retry):

  • Network timeouts
  • Temporary API issues
  • Server maintenance
  • Connection drops

Permanent (Manual Fix Needed):

  • Expired credentials → Reconnect
  • Content policy violation → Edit content
  • File too large → Compress
  • Invalid media → Replace file

Why Recovery Matters

Failures are inevitable. Smart retry means temporary glitches resolve automatically. Permanent issues get clear guidance. No posts lost, no manual monitoring required.

Pro Tips

  • Automatic retry handles most failures
  • Exponential backoff prevents API spam
  • Manual retry after fixing permanent issues
  • Edit before retry - fix content violations
  • Reconnect accounts for auth failures
