Hi Team,

Can we set the retry interval for a check at 30 secs?

You may be able to but that would mean changing the default interval for checks in general if I'm not mistaken:

We do not recommend this though, checking objects at a 1 minute or less interval can substantially decrease the system's stability and you will likely see a large jump in load due to how rapidly all of your checks are being ran.
