Thanks Jingsong for sharing your solution. Since both refreshing the token and the actual API request can fail with either recoverable and unrecoverable exceptions, are there any patterns for retrying both and making the code robust to failures. Thanks again.

Do refresh security token too.Actually, deal with anything in function. As long as we finally call the relevant methods of ResultFuture.

Hi Folks: I am working on a project where I will be using Flink's async processing capabilities. The job has to make http request using a token. The token expires periodically and needs to be refreshed. So, I was looking for patterns for handling async call failures and retries when the token expires. I found this link Re: Backoff strategies for async IO functions? and it appears that Flink does not support retries and periodically refresh a security token. I am using 1.6 at the moment but am planning to migrate to 1.9 soon. | | | | Re: Backoff strategies for async IO functions? | | | If there are any patterns on how to deal with this scenario, please let me know.
