The retry mechanism for uploading voice files.

[delsoul6104]

If I upload a voice file to the backend service and the upload is interrupted due to network issues, is there a retry mechanism in place?

Hi @delsoul6104.

There are no retry mechanisms for sending any message content to the server.

The reason for this is because if something does go wrong when data is being sent - it carries low severity, hence the user is free to retry again and they are fully aware that there is some sort of a problem with the backend.

You can also observer that ChatGPT (to-date) also does not have a retry mechanism - potentially due to the same reason.

May I ask, what motivated you to raise this issue? Thanks!

hi @OvidijusParsiunas

When I start recording with the microphone and send it to a custom backend service via DeepChat, if a network error occurs during the JS XHR request, the recording just made becomes invalid, and I need to record again.

Ok, that seems to be quite serious.
I am currently working on another feature right now, but I will try to find a way to retain the recordings as soon as I get time.
I will update you when I have come up with a fix.
