Polly use cases

Polly is a “.NET resilience and transient-fault-handling library that allows developers to express policies such as Retry, Circuit Breaker, Timeout, Bulkhead Isolation, Rate-limiting and Fallback in a fluent and thread-safe manner.”

These are my use cases.

Handle HTTP API Call Failures

await Policy
	.Handle<HttpRequestException>()
	.OrResult<HttpResponseMessage>(x =>
		x.StatusCode.IsNotOneOf(HttpStatusCode.Accepted, HttpStatusCode.OK))
	.RetryAsync(4)
	.ExecuteAsync(async () =>
	{
		var response = await _httpClient.PostAsync(webhookUrl),
			new StringContent(JsonSerializer.Serialize(webhookRequest)));
		return response;
	});
