A Cloud Run job consists of one or more tasks. The maximum retries setting specifies the number of times a task is allowed to restart in case of failure before being failed permanently. The default is 3.
This setting applies per-task, not per-job. If you set this to 0, tasks only run once and are not retried on failure.
To specify maximum retries:
Console
If you are configuring a new job, click the Jobs tab and fill out the initial job settings page as desired. If you are configuring an existing job, click the job, then click Edit.
Click Container, variables and secrets, connections, security to expand the job properties page.
Click the General tab.
Specify the number of retries using an integer from 0 to 10.
Click Create or Update.
