Replace your-api-key

Scenario 1: searching on e-mail

Steps:

• Create a contact and store the id
• Getting the contact by id will always work
• Searching the contact by email will sometimes fail (1 out of 10 executions will fail). Even adding a timeout of 5 seconds can result in failure.

Scenario 2: linking a contact to an opportunity

Steps:

• Create an opportunity and store the id
• Create a contact and store the id
• Link the contact to the opportunity
• Get the opportunity by id and sometimes the link will be missing even when the previous call was successful (1 out of 10 executions will fail). Even adding a timeout of 5 seconds can result in failure.

Problem

How can we build a polling mechanism to cover these failures?
