Troubleshooting

Retrying failed objects

Relevant toAll plans

During a large migration, sometimes objects can fail: a network blip, an API rate limit hit, a value the target field rejects. DatMig is built so one failure never sinks the whole migration.

How retry works

  • The run migrates everything it can, then shows a Retry Failed button.
  • A retry attempt tries to migrate only the failed objects; anything already migrated is not tried.
  • You can retry as many times as you want; each attempt picks up only what is still outstanding.

Tips

  • Check the reason of each failure first. Some failures are due to target platform constraints and cannot be fixed just with a retry.
  • For rate-limit failures, raise the query delay before retrying.
