REST GET with retries not working

[kindminis]

I have a REST GET snap with an authorization header holding an access token which is making a call to see if a job is done with a status code that is either Submitted or Completed. I want it to retry the same URL with the authorization header until the code is Completed, then grabs an S3 url. However, I cannot get the retry to work using has next/next URL.

Has Next:
jsonPath($, “$entity.data.attributes.status.code”) != ‘Completed’

Next URL:
“https://…/v2/jobs/” + $job_id

@kindminis - I think your Has Next property is not correct.  The easiest way to test it is to put a Filter snap after your Rest Get and test the expression.  Once you have it working as expected, just copy and past the expression back into the Has Next property.

If I were to wager a guess, I think the value you want is simply:

$entity.data.attributes.status.code != 'Completed'

Hope this helps!

Not sure if everyone noticed but sometime this year the documentation on the REST GET snap and HTPP client were updated to say this: 

Since this, any new pipeline development has been with HTTP client snap. 

@snap  Is that message still true and relevant?
