retryable

Allows another attempt

Retryable describes something that can be attempted again, especially after failure.

The term appears most often in computing, where a retryable error or retryable exception indicates a failed operation worth attempting again—as opposed to permanent failures where retrying would be pointless.

The API returns a retryable status code when the server is temporarily overloaded.
