Common settings

The settings in this section apply to all service types.

The number of milliseconds that PingAuthorize Server waits for the request to complete. If this time elapses before receiving a successful response, the server cancels request. If the server has retries configured, the server attempts the request again. If all requests fail to complete in time, the service result is an error that represents the timeout.

If the initial request fails or times out, this value indicates the number of times PingAuthorize Server attempts the request again. To try the request only once, set this value to zero.

Options are:

For Fixed Interval, this value represents the number of milliseconds that PingAuthorize Server waits between request attempts.

For Exponential Backoff, PingAuthorize Server multiplies this value by 2^n, where n represents the number of retries already made. For example, if the retry delay is 1000 and you have Exponential Backoff selected, PingAuthorize Server makes the initial request, then waits 1000ms before making a second attempt, 2000ms before the third attempt, 4000ms before the fourth attempt, and so on.

This setting is a percentage value that indicates the amount of variability to apply to the retry delay on each attempt. For example, if this value is set to 10%, the delays in the previous example are 1000±100ms, 2000±100ms, 4000±100ms, and so on.

Specify an optional processor to transform the resolved value. See Processors.

These are required settings that are applied and describe the resolved value after any preprocessing. Set the Type field to String for plain text, or JSON or XML for those types, and so forth.

Select the Secret check box to mark a service’s response as secret and ensure this data is never leaked to log files.
