How to Prevent Retries for Specific Exceptions

When using RetryPolicy in your assets, you can prevent retries for specific exceptions by using the allow_retries=False parameter in a Failure event

To implement this:

• Import the Failure class from dagster

• Raise a Failure with allow_retries=False in your exception handling

This is particularly useful when you have a RetryPolicy configured but need certain exceptions to bypass the retry mechanism, such as for validation errors or other scenarios where retrying would not resolve the issue

For more information about handling failures and op events, see the Dagster documentation on op events and failures
