Give failed research runs a clear retry path
A scheduled follow-up can retry a failed assistant run with the same parameters, so a transient failure is less likely to end the research task.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Retry Assistant Run
Tool to retry a previously failed assistant run. Use when a run has failed and you need to rerun it with the same parameters.
Why this helps
A failed run can disappear beneath other work unless someone notices it and remembers to restart the research.
- Create a repeatable response to failed runs.
- Retry the original task without recreating its setup from memory.
- Keep interrupted research visible for follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Exa and Griptape to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create a prompt that checks the relevant Exa research run and retries it only after confirming it failed.
- 3Select a Notis cron trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 4Test using a failed run you can safely retry and confirm the retry uses the original parameters.
Questions about this workflow
Does retry create a different task?
The retry action reruns a previously failed assistant run with the same parameters.
