**Example:**

The steps inside **Retry** component are executed 3 times until they're successful - "true" should appear in the message:

```
"start": [
{
"type": "connector",
"name": "gzip-connector",
"stepName": "test-compress",
"params": {
"operation" : "compress",
"failOnError": false,
"jsonField": "body.test",
"preserveOriginal" : false,
"isBinary" : false
}
}
]
```
