@karenbraganz I think, in the scenario you describe, this is the desired behaviour. The reason why the task is not going into an `UP_FOR_RETRY` state is because the we have reached the [timeout](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/core-concepts/tasks.html#timeouts). When this occurs, the sensor task will immediately raise a `AirflowSensorTimeout` exception and fail without retrying. ``` [2024-12-16, 12:09:25 GMT] {external_task.py:274} INFO - Poking for DAG 'non_existent_dag' on 2024-12-16T12:07:00+00:00 ... [2024-12-16, 12:09:25 GMT] {taskinstance.py:301} INFO - Sensor has timed out; run duration of 10.012994088 seconds exceeds the specified timeout of 5.0. ``` It makes no sense to retry a sensor just for a timeout; instead the timeout should be longer. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
