How to Use Integromat’s (Make.com) Error Handler Module for Incomplete Executions

If you want to use Incomplete executions in your Integromat scenario but also want to ensure that the scenario does not continue until the incomplete execution is complete, you can set up an error handler module to retry the failed module until it succeeds.

Here are the steps to set up an error handler module in this way:

1. In your scenario, click on the module that you want to retry if it fails.
2. Click on the “Error Handling” tab in the module settings.
3. Enable the “Incomplete execution” option and choose the action you want to take if the module fails (e.g., stop the scenario or continue the scenario).
4. Click on the “Retry on error” option and choose how many times you want the module to retry (e.g., 3 times) and how long to wait between each retry (e.g., 5 minutes).
5. If you want to notify yourself or your team when the module fails, you can add an additional module to send a notification (e.g., via email, Slack, etc.) when the module fails.

By setting up the error handler module in this way, Integromat will retry the failed module a specified number of times before moving on to the next module in the scenario. This allows you to ensure that the incomplete execution is complete before the scenario continues, while still taking advantage of the benefits of Incomplete executions.

If you want the scenario to stop until the incomplete execution is completed, you would need to set up an error handler for each module in the scenario.

In this case, each error handler would be configured to stop the scenario if the module fails and retry the module until it succeeds. When the module succeeds, the scenario will continue with the next module.

Setting up error handlers for each module can be time-consuming and may not always be necessary, especially if some modules are less critical than others. In some cases, it may be sufficient to set up an error handler for only the most critical modules in the scenario.

It’s also worth noting that if a module has no error handler and it fails, the scenario will stop immediately, even if there are other modules in the scenario that could still be executed successfully. So it’s generally a good idea to set up error handlers for all modules in your scenario, especially if the scenario is critical to your workflow.
