Query still runs on re:focus even if failed 6 retries

[saturnonearth]

If a query fails and retries 6 times, it stops, but then re-starts on window re-focus.

This is an expected behavior, queries are also re-started if you navigate again on this page.

If you want to avoid some errors to be retried (eg: 404, 403, etc.), you can use the retry option:

// on a specific query
const query = useQuery("users", loadUsers, {
  retry: (failureCount, err) => failureCount < 3 && (err.status !== 403 || err.status !== 404),
});

// or globally
const client = new QueryClient({
  defaultOptions: {
    queries: {
      retry: (failureCount, err) => failureCount < 3 && (err.status !== 403 || err.status !== 404),
    },
  },
});
