We configured business rule+ script include for outbound rest integration.
Requirement is to add retry mechanism (3 times) & error handling (create incident) for failure.
Can we call this script include in flow designer to use oob retry mechanism & error handling ?
Or can we directly incorporate additional code in script include itself ?

Hi @Balakrishna_ABK ,
1) Replace BR with flow designer and use retry logic (if it works for you) - or you can create a subflow to customize retry logic (frequency, notification etc..)
2) Use OOB error handling logic to create a incident (may be use a subflow to create a incident here so that you can use this subflow across other integrations, flows when required)
Hope it helps!
Thank you,

better start using Flow as it has retry mechanism built in
Flow and Action Error Handling Level 1: Retry and Action Error Evaluation - Workflow Automation CoE
