When working with external service task in Camunda Platform, the properties panel offers to configure a Retry Time Cycle. This Cycle is valid for the Job Execution but not for the external service task worker per se.
However, there have been multiple cases where this was confused by users:
Configure an external service task in camunda platform
Add async before or async after
Take a look at the appearing job execution section
Expected Behavior
There are probably two aspects to this:
The documentation should clearly explain that jobs and external tasks are two different concepts. The configuration in the prop panel relates to the job (and not the external task).
The properties panel should make this clearer (e.g., link to docs? description?)
