+## Automatic job retries
+
+Automatic job retries are in Preview. To request access, contact your Datadog account team.
+
+Automatic job retries save developer time by re-running failures that are likely transient, such as network timeouts, infrastructure failures, or flaky tests. Genuine code defects are not retried. Datadog runs each failed job through an AI-powered error classifier. When the failure is identified as retriable, Datadog triggers a retry through the GitHub Actions API without manual intervention.
+
+### How it works
+
+1. A job fails in your workflow.
+2. Datadog's AI error classifier inspects the job's logs and error context to determine whether the failure is transient.
+3. If the failure is classified as retriable, Datadog requests a retry through the GitHub Actions API.
+4. Datadog retries each job up to a maximum number of attempts to prevent infinite retry loops.
+5. Datadog records the retry outcome on the original pipeline in CI Visibility.
+
+### Requirements
+
+- CI Visibility enabled for your GitHub Actions integration (see [Configure the Datadog integration](#configure-the-datadog-integration)).
+- [Datadog Source Code Integration][27] configured for the repositories where you want automatic retries.
+- Automatic job retries enabled for your organization (see the banner above for how to request access).
+
+### GitHub-specific behavior
+
+GitHub Actions imposes two provider-level limitations that shape how retries work:
+
+- **Retries happen after the workflow finishes.** The GitHub API does not allow retrying an individual job while the rest of the workflow is still running. Datadog waits for the workflow to reach a final state before issuing retries.
+- **All failed jobs are retried together.** The GitHub API does not support retrying a single job when other jobs in the workflow have also failed. Datadog reruns every failed job in the workflow through a single GitHub API call. This may increase your GitHub Actions compute usage.
+
+### Protected branches
+
+The Datadog GitHub App's default permissions do not allow retries on protected branches. To enable automatic retries on a protected branch (for example, your default branch), grant the app Maintainer-level access. Review your organization's policies before expanding permissions.
+
+### Limitations
+
+- Each logical job is retried at most one time.
+- Jobs classified as non-retriable (for example, compilation errors or asserted test failures) are never retried.
+- If a job has already been retried manually or by provider-native retry rules, Datadog does not issue an additional retry.

+Automatic job retries are in Preview. To request access, contact your Datadog account team.
+
+Automatic job retries save developer time by re-running failures that are likely transient, such as network timeouts, infrastructure failures, or flaky tests. Genuine code defects are not retried. Datadog runs each failed job through an AI-powered error classifier. When the failure is identified as retriable, Datadog triggers a retry through the GitLab API without manual intervention.
+
+On GitLab, Datadog performs **smart retries**: only the specific job classified as retriable is re-run. Other failed jobs (that aren't classified as retriable) and passing jobs aren't affected.
+
+### How it works
+
+1. A job fails in your pipeline.
+2. Datadog's AI error classifier inspects the job's logs and error context to determine whether the failure is transient.
+3. If the failure is classified as retriable, Datadog requests a retry through the GitLab API as soon as the job fails. Retries are dispatched per job.
+4. Datadog retries each job up to a maximum number of attempts to prevent infinite retry loops.
+5. Datadog records the retry outcome on the original pipeline in CI Visibility.
