Templafy Desktop retry mechanism

This release will implement a default retry mechanism within Templafy desktop that will make 5 authentication retry attempts with 2 minutes intervals. This is to ensure that seamless SSO doesn't fail sporadically or fail due to Templafy Desktop initiating the login flow before a secure connection could be established if a network infrastructure component has also been established (VPN, DNS proxies,...).

 

The number of retry attempts (defaults to 5) and the interval between retry attempts (defaults to 2 minutes) can be configured under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Templafy\Desktop by creating the following string values:

 

  • AuthenticationFailureRetryAttempts: Integer - the number of retry attempts
  • AuthenticationFailureRetryInterval: Integer - the number of minutes between retry attempts

  • Only natural numbers are supported, if other values are specified the default value will be used.
  • We do not recommend setting the values above the default one as it would increase the general amount of time of the sign-in process.
  • The retry mechanism also affects the update of packages as updating Templafy requires the user to be logged in.
